2009 Stability
2009 Stability
(OP)
Hello, just wondering if anyone has any input on how stable 2009 is? We are still running 2006 at our company, but have made the purchase of 2009, and are curious if we should wait for a couple service packs or if it's stable as is. We understand that we are going to have some learning to do, due to our leap from 06, so that's not an issue. Just don't want to have any added down time, due to bugs.
Thanks,
Chris

Well spec'd workstations, with correctly installed hardware and software, will help ensure smooth running of SW2009.
Many people just throw the latest version of SW onto a cluttered, crappy PC and can't understand why they don't have perfect performance.

One other thing. SolidWorks messed with my AutoCAD, without any warning or permission, and I really didn't like that. I think it's not fair.

Can you list your system specs?
Did you upgrade, multi-install or clean install SW09?
AntiVirus on or off? (Which AV)
Did you update your graphics drivers? (update or clean install?)

Other than that, its pretty stable in my opinion and is a joy to work on.
