Win32 Error

Win32 Error

Win32 Error

(OP)
We just got a new computer in the office. When trying to load AutoCAD, I get an error that the setup.exe is not a win32 application. Any ideas as to what may be going on?

Have never had this problem when loading before. Working with 2002 version

RE: Win32 Error

Seems like I've read this could be a CDROM driver issue. Try to update CD drivers and see what happens.

RE: Win32 Error

Search for all setup.exe files.  Delete or rename until it works.  If you get a "file not found - setup.exe" when you try an install, you found the one you need.  Change or delete all the rest.  Try it again.
