I'm not ready to run for the hills just yet, but I am a bit floored by the 10 GB of RAM you have in your machine. I'm not worthy...

RE: Solidworks 2008 SP2.0 is live!!
EV's are never too good of an idea to run in a production environment--well neither is SP0.0 for that matter. From the fix list I've seen it's very extensive and has some key fixes that my team has been waiting on.
BTW, I've upgraded to SP2.0 on my machine so far and will report any quirks/issues that I encounter.

I updated the SP for everything. But, the eDrawings update really messed up my AutoCAD. It removed the .dwg info from the registry and replaced it with the eDrawing info. Every time I tried to open ANY .dwg or SolidWorks files, they opened in eDrawings.
Now, my pc also thinks something is still installing in the background. I can not download/install/uninstall anything!
My VAR had no answer!
Frustrating. I tried to uninstall all SolidWorks and AutoCAD to start over, but it will not let me.

You can fix the opening thing in Windows explorer, under Tools, Folder Options, File Types, find the DWG file, and change it back to AutoCAD.

I also updated the other day and had the same problem with E-drawings taking over my ACAD, but the install itself completed successfully and I was able to redefine ACAD as the default of .dwg. Sounds like your install corrupted.

SP2.0 did something to my laptop. eDrawings has taken over even after uninstalling it and removing from the registry. Changed the file types, etc.
Now, PDMWorks client is gone and it will not let install it back. Now, I want to completely remove anything that has to do with SolidWorks and start over. It will not let me do that either! My VAR says it's out of their hands!
UGH!

RE: Solidworks 2008 SP2.0 is live!!
The speed of 2008 is terrible compared to our 2007 installation and a lot of the older intuitive features are no longer available. Lots of new flashy (read useless) stuff to make everything look pretty but very little functionality upgrades. Looking back I'd rather be still running 2007 - so far it seems to have been a better software package with less issues. I'm sure with time they'll get it sorted out but right now its safe to say I'm not a big fan.

That's what I am talking about. Edrawing taking over Autocad drawings and not be able to claim them back. It would be awful.
I was looking to upgrade mainly because an issue with SW2007 that started around SP3.0 and it's still there in SP5.0. The issues is instability in saving custom properties using a Visual Basic program. It happens quite often. I better start another thread for it.

Now...my PDMWorks Client install is gone and it will not let me reinstall it. It doesn't even show up on my DVD anymore. I can see the vault through Wind Expl and can login as admin, but can't checkin/checkout and the addin for PDMW in SW is gone.
My VAR has been useless. They tell me to see my IT person. That's me!
I may have to reimage my hard drive and start over!
