sucky autocad preformance

i hav a 2.8Ghx p4 w/ ht
a p4p800-s asus mother board
1GB ram

so the problem.

autocad is sucking it big time. switching between layouts blows, osnap
is acting funny

i'm not sure whats going on. does anyone have preformance tips they can
share?

 

Version? Have you checked into Named Layer Filters?
They could be the culprit.

 

Is this something new? Are you a new user trying to learn AutoCAD, or are
you an experienced user who's just started having problems? Which version of
AutoCAD? What OS? Tell us more.

alrighty. i'm definately not a noob. i've been hackin around in autocad
now for abotu 10 years.

ive just started experiancing preformance issues with autocad in the
past week or so.

its Arhictectural Desktop 2004. i'm running winxp pro

no viruses, or anything of the sort

i don't retain layout info, i regen each time i switch, but that not the
issue.

the big thing thats pissing me off is the shitty osnap preformance.. a
lot of the time the grip won't even show up

and the insanely stupid load times. and file shutdown times

any comments people?

thanks

 

adt 2k4.

in my case michael i don't think that is the issue. i only have a couple
hundred layers, with no filters (i don't believe in that crap)

thanks for the help. so far no solution. keep them coming guys

 

a virus is my 1st guess & crappy video card is my 2nd

 

hey thanks longshot
yer right, that was a longshot. hehe

virus free,

yes i do have a crappy vid card, however its never given me problems.
and i can play Counter Strike: Source pretty damn good

so..

any other suggestions?

 

mine was doing it a couple months ago & i found that i had a system worm
(virus) avast is a free anti-virus that could tell you.. some programs don't
detect worms
