Off to a blistering start! (2006)
(OP)
Just installed SWx 2006 here at home...as an upgrade from SW2005 sp4...which was maybe a mistake.
I open SWx2006, select New->part.....and the whole machine freezes.... had to restart. Tried it twice. No good.
I give up for today.......

RE: Off to a blistering start! (2006)
OK, now that that's out of the way. .. MMike1, was this an upgrade or a fresh install? If it's a fresh installation, did you separate the directories (install 2006 in a directory marked "SolidWorks2006" or similar)? If not, you'll need to do an uninstall and clean reinstall. Check CorBlimeyLimey's post and the other FAQs on this subject while you're there--good stuff.

I agree, I always create a new folder and do a new install. I also use the AdminImage and update it last.

I know that Scott runs several versions on his box and I'm interested in keeping the old install.

Delete folders in the registry. Start, Run, type “regedit” look under HK Current User, Software. Delete Bluebeam Software, eDrawings, SRAC, S.R.A.C., SolidWorks
Delete the same as above under HK Local Machine.
