Re: Can you run Autodesk/Solidworks on 64 bit?
Just as an update to my earlier post...the link DOES in fact work on the lower half of the FIRSTbase page, but I will warn that it is an 8.7 gb compressed ZIP download, and it takes my system over an hour and a half to extract the whopping 14.5 GIGABYTE FILE! The software is VERY intensive and demanding (they recommend 6gb ram), but if you are relying on FIRSTbase as your only source for Inventor, then this is your only option! But as I said, the download and install is nearly a twelve hour project on 64bit systems, but it works!

Just as a side note...I am running 1.5mb/sec DSL, an Intel Core 2 Duo at 2.20 Ghz, and 4 gb ram on Vista Premium 64bit edition..

But sorry for the delay on my post, and GOOD LUCK!
