    I just purchased a new computer with Win XP Pro as my OS. I was using Win 98
    in my old computer and was running Autocad ver. 12 just fine. It also run
    fine with Win 95 before that. When I updated to the new computer, I had my
    old hard drive installed alongside my new hard drive as an aux drive and had
    it labled as Drive B. Autocad is now on my B drive. When I move to B drive
    and click on ACAD.exe, I get an error message "Divide by Zero or Overflow
    Error". Can someone explain what this is and can it be corrected? Thanks

    So your operating system you are using now is on drive c: ? And you are
    trying to use the AutoCAD that was installed with the operating system on
    drive b:?

    If you are doing this, you can't. There is no information in the registry
    regarding your AutoCAD program. You need to reinstall AutoCAD while running
    the new operating system.

    Does anything else on that hard drive work? I bet it doesn't. Drive B is for
    a floppy drive. That is what it expects to see. You can put your aux. hard
    drive on anything but A,B,or C.
