you can do reverse compatability by right clicking on acad setup and changing it to say xp or even my favorite win 2000 I had to do this to run acad 2000 and some of my other programs as well

Check on autocad's website. They were supposed to put out a patch to make it work in vista.

I guess I need opengl drivers to run autocad 2005 that MS did not put in vista. anybody ran into this problem before. or can i down load windows xp in place of my vista? will that screw anything up?
