Cosmosworks

I posted earlier my Toshiba Satellite Pro 6100 having problems running
SW2005. It would crash whenever I "save as" a part to a different
format. Thanks to Jim Zink at Symmetry Solutions, Inc.

whom advised me to select "opengGL" in options/performance now it
works.

But I need to qualify it. In my previous XP screen setting it wa 32
bit high resolution video. In that setting the "openGL" box was greyed
out and checked. So there was nothing I can do. I changed the screen
setting to 16 bit high resolution. After doing that I can now check
the "openGL" box so the SW2005 crashing upon "saveas" is no more.

Now the SW2005 seems to be working. There is a second problem. I
installed cosmoswork. But it does not appear in the add-in menu. Can
anyone help?

 

On previous versions of C'works you had to manually move the files
cosworks.40 and coswres.40 (the 40 may change with the version) into the
main Solidworks folder. You also had to set a path in the environment
table that pointed to the C'works install folder in order for the
material list to show (inside C'works).

Thanks for the reply.

I removed Cosmosworks and reinstalled again. It works now.
