2 hours and so far so good. I was stuck on SP0.0 due to the WinXP SP2.0
thingy. It was very buggy and crashy. Since installing SP5.0 a little
while ago, I have done some fairly complex stuff that will usually stress SW
and the system a lot. So far, SW seems to be running a lot smoother and
more stable.
Cross my finger.... Knock on wood... and all that stuff!!!!

I have SP4.2 and XP SP2 installed and no probs with those... Now trying
to install 4.2 to 5.0 I get error that installation source not found...
For a sake of testing I tried 4.1 to 5.0 and it stated correctly that
I´m trying to update wrong version... anyone else? I also have 2005
Sp0.1 installed... |

I think there may be some issues for multi installs- I found a list of error
numbers and it said 2753 is related to authoring problems.
perhaps those with 03,04,05 aboard should hold off for now.
I reported my experience to my VAR and he said he would talk to SW.

anyone have access to 2004 SP5? I'm stuck at 3.0 and I'm trying to
google for what has happened since then. Our subscription ran out. I

Your boss needs to understand how much it costs delaying projects to
deal with crashes and not having the features and stability for a
smooth work flow. I've seen the same thing when bosses run a 3Ghz PIV
for themselves, yet they keep their staff on PIIIs @ 1 ghz or so, and
never wonder why it takes so long to get some SolidWorks models and
drawings done.
It is more cost to the company for slowdowns than the cost of the
subscription support fee, in my estimation.
Being able to also get VAR tech. support answers when a glitch or
unknown situation arises is also extremely valuable as I have found
out. Sometimes I have had weird things which just plain stopped me
cold, and the VAR had an answer in 2 minutes. That is worth a lot to
me.
In addition, many (all?) VARs have some free classes for updating knowledge.

Sounds like a good example of why some firms don't switch
to the latest release at once <g>.
What were you using before?

Unless something has change in SolidWorks policy, they do provide bug fixes
at no charge to licensed owners of the software. Check with your VAR

we've been using SW since version 2001, then installed 2003, went thru
those service packs and then have been on 2004 since it came out and
the service packs till lately. It's not a question of a cheap boss,
it's a question of SolidWorks not releasing fixes to their buggy
software without a subscription. |

If you're listening to what folks are saying, you'll hear that you can
get any service pack for a major release you have paid for. Everyone
else with 2004 sp5 so far sounds very positive. Your VAR should be
able to get this service pack for you. Is there some other difficulty?

I finally got my boss to "see the light" on this very issue. I just got a
new system a few weeks ago (it was like pulling teeth to get it). I went
from a P4-2.4Ghz 1Gb memory to a P4-3.2Ghz (with HD) 2Gb memory. Not a huge
leap in technology but still fairly significant.
After working with the system for a few days, I estimated that I was saving
between approx.15-30min. a day from my previous system. In a days time,
that isn't a real huge savings. Over a year, it is not hard to figure out
that it easily pays for itself, even though it was a fairly expensive
system. Now that he has seen the benefits, I will probably be getting a new
system every 12-18 months or so as long as technology increases at the same
speed as it has been.

Neil,
How did you solve this.
I remove SW2003 and SW2004 SP4.2 from my computer to reinstall a fresh copy.
When I load my original SW2004SP0 disk into the drive and click install the
windows installer asks me if I want to modify , repair or delete
SW2004SP2.1, which ever option I choose I get an Internal error 2753 and the
option fails.
I am running XPro SP2
Thank you for your help
