Are there any conflicts when installing AutoCAD 2006 on a computer that still has AutoCAD 2004?

You should not have any issues with that type of install. I currently have '02, '05, & '06 on the same machine. The newer versions are allowing the older versions to coexist on the same machine. But make sure your software license agreement allows you to do this as well.
If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

I have the same setup as richard. I believe only subscription customers can keep different versions running concurrently, otherwise the upgrade eula specifies that the older version be removed after something like 30 days.Originally Posted by richardl.25628

Can I run AutoCAD 2006 side by side on my computer with AutoCAD 2005, 2004, 2002, or 2000i?
Have a good one, Mike

But is it legal to do so, that is the question...
I personally recommend you check / read the licence agreement...

I'll look into it but why would it be illegal? I have a license for each version.At the job I had before this we also had multiple versions of autocad on the same workstations and they were not on a subscription service either.
It all depends on what the EULA states. On subscription, this is allowed. When not on subscription, I think this is not allowed. I am on subscription, so I do not have any knowledge on your situation.Originally Posted by james.eustace

Honestly go read the licence agreement, I think you will be in for a shock.
Unless the company you worked for before had some kind of special agreement with Autodesk, they were strictly speaking breaking the law.

Just out of curiosity, what if they were 3 separate license of each program. If I bought a license of 2002 and never upgraded, then bought a full license of 2004 and a full license of 2006. would i not have the rights to run all of them together since each one is a legal licensed copy? I'm on subscription so it doesn't matter to me but I'm wondering if this is the only way you could run the different versions side by side?
