    SWX2008 & Vista Home Premium

    I know that SWx2008 is only supposed to run on Vista Ultimate & Business, but has anyone got it to run on Home Premium? I would like to install it on my home desktop to work from home a little, but my new desktop has Vista Home Premium installed. CSWP SolidWorks 2007 SP5.0/2008 SP3.1...

    BOM Color

    We are having a strange problem with our drawing's BOMs. For 2 of our users, the BOMs appear on the sheet as an orange color no matter if it is a inserted new, or opened w/an existing drawing. For the other 2, it appears black like the rest of the sheet. Our sheet formats do not have layers...

    Dual Computers??????

    anyone using a dedicated "Solidworks only" workstation and a second computer for email/internet? Our IT guys are convinced that this is necessary. Right now, they are starting to roll out a new computer to us just for Solidworks, and we are keeping our old computers to run M$ office and...

    Sheet Scale Question

    ok, well I've tried the search, no results, but can you change the sheet scale to show "architectural" units? Instead of the '1:1' have it read '1/2"=1'-0"' SolidWorks 2007 SP2.2 Intel Xeon 2.8GHz 4GB Ram NVIDIA Quadro FX3000

    swCP3 -- swProp2 with SW2007?

    Is anyone running the swProp2 program with 2007 yet? We were starting to use it here, then when we did our clean install upgrade from 2006, we can not install it with 2007. SolidWorks 2006 SP4.1 Intel Xeon 2.8GHz 4GB Ram NVIDIA Quadro FX3000

    2007 Weldment Cross Sections

    Well, just starting to load 07 to start messing with it. I found in the "What's New Highlights" book that is included with the install CDs it states that there is now a complete set of structural member cross sections for each Toolbox standard available as weldment profiles. But when I try to...

    Missing Dimension Handle Points

    A coworker of mine keeps losing the dimension handle points that allow you to change the direction of the extension lines in all his drawings. Each time, to fix it, we have been modifiying the registry, and they come back for a few days. We are all running SP1.1. Has anyone else experienced...

    Third Party Toolbox Library

    Anyone have any experience with third party toolbox libraries? There are some other users here who do not like the SW Toolbox (most of their concerns are with the way the SW parts show up in a BOM) and want me to look into some of the others that are out there. We want to determine if it would...

    Toolbox Customizing

    We are trying to add part #s and descriptions to the toolbox parts so they appear in our BOMs the way we want them to. When I export the list from Tools->Options->Data Options->Edit Standards Data to Excel, add our info, and import it back, nothing changes. When I was showing this feature to...

    Toolbox Parts - SW2005

    After getting new computers, myself and the other users have discovered that there are no metric lockwashers in our toolbox. We all thought there used to be before we got our new computers. Are we wrong, or is there something missing in the new installation? All the new machines are running...

    nVidia Quadro NVS

    I just got a new computer at work, and they are using the Quadro NVS graphics cards. I have only had experience with the Quadro FX series. Does this card work well with SW, or am I in for some trouble? I did look on the SW website, but did not find any information, has this card even been...

    Disappearing Threads

    I have a few parts that the threads do not appear (in the side views of the holes), but the hole itself is there. The tapped holes were created using the hole wizard, and the drawing views are slightly rotated. When the drawing views are vertical/horizontal, the threads appear. Anyone else...
