Install Problem

Install Problem

Install Problem

(OP)
I am trying to reinstall SW 2006 SP 0.0.  The reason that I am doing that is when I started SW it would say that I was trying to install MathCad????  Any way I uninstalled SW then I tried to reinstall SW and when I put in disk 2 I get this error "can not find file c:\program files\bluebeam software\brewery\v4\printer support\win2000\bbpdfportmon.dll"  I tried to navigate to that file but the bluebeam folder was empty?  I also have AutoCrap (Opps I mean AutoCAD) on my computer.  Not sure if that means anything but I saw where bluebeam was linked to AutoCAD.  Anybody here of anything like this???

Thanks

RE: Install Problem

Blue beam in SW06 was how PDF files were saved out in SW. They changed that in SW07... try looking on the SW knowledge base I bet its convered in there.

RE: Install Problem

Have you used the SWCleanUninstall and SWSysClean utilities from the Technical Tips and Best Practices > Utilities section of the SolidWorks Customer Portal?

RE: Install Problem

One problem I ran into, ACAD should be installed AFTER SolidWorks. For some reason when installing SW after ACAD, files get crossed and corrupted.

RE: Install Problem

Probably because most people would want to get rid of ACAD as soon as they get hold of SW. lol poke

I tried everything that all of you mentioned and none of it worked.  I was starting to get very frustrated.  I was getting stuck at the same point each time so I decided to look at the CD.  Low and behold there was a piece of something stuck on the CD.  I removed the debris and SW installed perfectly.  Thanks for all of the help but next time I will look at the most likely cause of the problem "operator head space and timing"

This should be part of a FAQ. "If all else fails, remove sticky thing from disc".
