Re: Inventor on Windows Me

I'm not sure if you have solved your problem with Inventor or not, but here is my two cents worth.
I had Windows Me on my Compaq Presario and it also wouldn't run Inventor R3 or R4. The software would load fine, and all the functionality appeared to be intact until you attempted to do the "save" or "save as" command. I talked with Autodesk and they basically told me that Inventor wouldn't/couldn't be supported on Windows Me. I thought this seemed strange since the software was almost fully functional on Me. My solution, I upgraded my operating system to the new Windows XP platform and everything is working just fine now. Of course this cost 100 beans so it's not a cheap solution, but it was the only one I was able to come up with. I hope this helps.
Keep 'botting.
