Is there a clever person out there who can help.

My ancient Autocad has a personalization floppy disk with the CD software.

It's worked forever on my old machine, but my new computer doesn't have a floppy drive.

I thought I could transfer the info via a flash drive or such, but it's not happening.

I then tried to copy the whole programme from my old C drive, but it seems to need extra .dll files so that doesn't work.

NFI what that's about.

Get a new version of AutoCad.

It will be easier.

I also have Acad 14 and 2000. The old release 12 is so much faster than the "new" stuff it's not funny. A bit like Microsoft, the more options it offers, the slower it runs and one thing I can't stand is slow Acad.

But after speaking to a computer expert, it looks like she's had it.

He was amazed my floppy info had even lasted this long.

    • It's got a problem Prank... It looks like both washer spray caps have fallen off this car... 😛
    • Meh, it's only got to last another 10 years or so until you'll be forbidden to drive it. Keep it dry and forget about it.
    • The title of Engineer is not protected. However different states have different rules about what an Engineer requires to operate. Engineering for a motor vehicle modification is very different to engineering for a bridge, electronics, etc, including what that engineer needs as certifications.   In Canberra, "Engineer" is the loosest category with basically nothing stopping you calling yourself and engineer and designing a bridge or building. From what I've reviewed, QLD has the strictest requirements through RPEIQ.
    • Yeap, legal modifications are limited  We have rules and regulations on what you can do legally This is for NSW, other states have different governing bodies  https://www.nsw.gov.au/driving-boating-and-transport/vehicle-registration/how-to-register/registering-a-used-or-secondhand-vehicle/modified-and-non-standard-vehicles https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf Lots of people just roll the dice though and just hope they don't get picked up,  as the police and RMS occasionally run roadside inspections, getting "defected" for not complying can be a painful and expensive experience 
    • Out of curiosity, I believe the title of "Engineer" is not protected in Australia like it is over here. I'm curious, does Australia actually have professional engineers do vehicle inspections?  If so, Jesus Christ what in the f**k.
