DaveHi50 Posted October 30, 2001 Share Posted October 30, 2001 are there any known issues with windows xp running VW8.5---also VW9.5 Aloha Quote Link to comment
Matthew Giampapa Posted October 30, 2001 Share Posted October 30, 2001 The most common problem 8.5 users have had are related to installing the software. VectorWorks must be installed and run at least once using an account with administrative privileges, and VectorWorks 8.5 also requires that Apple's QuickTime be installed with QuickDraw 3D. The catch is that QuickDraw 3D is no longer a default component in the latest release of QuickTime (5.02). So doing a simple install will not suffice, you have to select custom and select QuickDraw 3D by hand. If you are using QuickTime 4.1.2, there is no problem. Other than that, I have been using MC 7 - VW 9.5b here on Windows XP without a problem. Matthew GiampapaTechnical Support Quote Link to comment
