Solidworks Speed
(OP)
Hi,
We are currently looking to upgrade our operating system to Windows XP and to run Microsoft Office 2003 on it. We are currently using Windows 2000 Professional and Office 2000 Professional. We currently use Solidworks 2005 and Driveworks to generate repetative models. The problem we have is that using the proposed XP and Office 2003 the generation time of models is considerably slower. We have tried 'trimming' the system down with regard to mating animations etc... and even trying a standalone from the network, but we still have an issue with the models being generated slower than on the old spec Windows/Office. Has anyone else come across an issue like this, and how was it resolved?
Many thanks
Russell
