Help! AutoCAD 2004 Problem

Installed AutoCAD 2004 on Windows 2000 Advanced Server (MSIE 6.0 SP1). The
setup finished successfully, but after that when I start up the application,
nothing shows up. I restarted, turned off and turned on the computer,
still the same thing. The CDAC11BA.EXE service is up running, I copied the
licpath.lic license.lic to AutoCAD directory. When I click on AutoCAD icon,
acad.exe and ~e5d141.tmp appeared in the processes list for a second or two,
then they disappear and nothing happens. Therefore I haven't got a chance
to run authorization wizard.

Someone experienced similar problem or has some clues? Any help is welcomed.

 

May be you must wait a few minutes, then will AutoCAD start. To
avoid this problem try this:

1) go to control panel
2) open internet options.
3) in Advanced tab look for Security section.
4) uncheck the "Check for publisher's certificate revocation.

Tried that, still no luck

It's not how long I wait (nothing happened for hours), the two processes
simply terminated themselves. I check the ~e5d141.tmp file, it's actually
an executable by Macrovision, with internal name "Clean up". I don't know
what it does, but seems to be license related. However, if it's license
problem, at least it should prompt an error message!
