AutoCAD 2005 Plot Dialog Box Problems

[Sundance]

I am having problems with the AutoCAD 2005 Plot Dialog Box. I am an old school plot fan, and I turn off all the Layout crutches. I simply establish drawing limits equal to my sheet size. Then, I select "Limits" for the Plot Area. Up until AutoCAD 2005, I have never had problems plotting.

In 2005, there appears to be a problem with the plot dialog box. When I attempt the pick plot values from the drop-down lists, the lists with preset values are blank. Limits appears to be left out of the list altogether.

Has anyone else experienced any problem with the 2005 Plot dialog box? Can anyone help? Autodesk. Are you listening?

This is peer support. Nothing else.

Post screen shots of each of the plot windows and your pulldowns, provide
more details about what you are plotting to, driver, pc3 file etc. and maybe
a peer can help while you search for how to contact autodesk direct either
here or on their website (hint, contact link).

We have the same problem on a few machines and even worse after
playing with some settings in the plot dialog, I am not able to start
AutoCAD 2005 on one of them.
It hangs after opening of my template file, some setting seem to hold
the whole process.
I have tried to repair the installation but that didn't help at all.

I will try to produce all of our pc3 files from scratch, may be this
helps. (we use files that are on a server)
(We just upgraded from 2000i and 2004 to 2005.)
