Just upgraded to 2008, and had a problem with my 3D connexion space navigator. It will not work properly with Solidworks as an add-in. I can get it to work by opening the actual .dll file through solidworks. Does Solidworks have a "start-up" folder that I can manually add this dll file to since it cannot seem to do it itself?

Try repairing the 3D Connexion software install. You can do this through 'Add/Remove Programs > 3DConnexion 3DXSoftware > Change'. Select the 'Change' option and click through the dialogs.

I nearly always have to do this after a Solidworks upgrade to get my Space Explorer to work in SW.

^^ Typo - you need to select the 'Repair' option, not 'Change'...
