Unfortunately turning off HLR makes no difference. I have suppressed the pattern and when I attempt to unsuppress it takes a good 20 minutes - extremely unproductive!

Thanks for the input, I'll try it out

We have gigabit cards making the network very fast. Opening the file is not the issue its when I attempt to change a dimension within the hole pattern.

I am running NAV corporate and have excluded the network drive I am referencing.

HT is only support in P4 processors with 800Mhz FSB. My processor is only a 2.4G CPU with a 533Mhz FSB so therefore I dont have HT.

I dont have the option to disable HT in the Bios - is there an alternative method of disabling?

How do you disable Hyperthreading?

I'm using Win XP Pro with 2 gig allocated to use.

The machine I am using is a P4 2.4G which should be more than enough processing power. We are running SW03-SP5.1. I tried opening the assembly on a P4 3.2G machine and I experienced the same slow issue - it took 25min to perform the simple task of changing the hole diameter. The test file you...

Thanks for your input. I'm doing a few more test as well and will keep the thread up to date.

They are simple holes created by using the extruded cut feature and then linear patterned.

Solidworks sp5.1 fixes the reference issue

I have a drawing with 1000 or so holes and it takes close to 20 minutes to open. I have read previously that solidworks is not good at handling so many holes. Has anyone else experienced such a major slowdown with Solidworks. I have a pentium 4 2.4 Gig machine with 2 gig RAM

Hi TheTick, The program sounds interesting. Can you send me the script? Cheers

Hi JNR, The update process that your programmer implements is exactly what I'm looking for - a simple way for the 50 or so workstations to update tools. I look forward to TheTicks post.

Thanks TheTick thats cleared things up.

I have read a number of threads that refer to creating a solidworks addin using an Addin wizard. Is there such a thing?

This might sound like a very silly question but I can not seem to find the Addin wizard icon. Do I need to install and further software?
