Is Autocad LT 2005 compatible with Windows XP service pack 2? Since installing XP SP2, I have had a few problems with LT2005. One is the stalling when loading up LT2005 (although this happened prior to SP2). I've tried the workaround suggested in the knowledge base without success. The other is the color palette problem (see thread on that one), and now I can't plot on the Canon plotter as it just gives me a "Fatal Error message Unhandled Delayload "acgsimage.dll" Module not found Exception at 7c81eb33h"

Has anyone had these or similar problems? is there a way round them? Do I remove XP2 as suggested by luke ottinger?

Check out the following Technical Document on the Autodesk web site under the Knowledge Base section -

Thanks Mike. I had read that one. I have just done a reinstall/repair and that seems to have solved the color palette & plotting problem but not the stalling (allways at 47%).

hey i've had a similar problem to this,

i go on and will be using autocad fine but then sometimes, if i exit and then want to go on again it wont open. if i click an existing dwg file nothing happens, and if i just try running autocad (from double clicking the desktop icon) it opens half way through then just hangs.
this has happened a few times and our IT admin. says theres nothing in the event log.
the only solution i have is to reboot, then everything works fine again.

ps. we run windows 2000 pro with sp4

shawn.
