    Hi NG;

    I've created an AutoCAD 2005 install image with Network Installation Wizard.
    In this image i've set up a number of Support File Search Paths as
    well as a default Profile name.

    When I'm installing this on my machine as a user with administrator righths
    everthing works fine and I can log on to this as an normal user with
    restricted
    rights and the Support File Search Paths remains.

    On another computer this is not the case.
    If I install as an user with administor rights and then start AutoCad the
    setteings remains and everything works fine.
    Login on to this computer as an normal user and starting AutoCAD
    all of these settings are lost and AutoCAD has replaced it with the
    defult ones, ie the installation directory. The Profile name that was in
    the image has been replaced by the default one as well, ie <<Unamed
    Profile>>.

    Both computers runs:
    Win XP Sp2
    Office 2003
    AutoCAD 2005

    They are set up with some difference in the settings but I cant really tell
    wich ones.

    Anyone has an idea why AutoCAd loses it settings when switching between
    users.
    Switching to another user other than the one that installed AutoCAD but with
    administrator rights wont help either. The same problem occurs there as
    well.

    TIA David
