Autocad 09 and Space navigator for notebooks

Post by Codered741 »

Hello all,

I am new to the 3D Mouse world, and absolutely love it! My Mouse works great with Autodesk Inventor, but i am having some problems with AutoCAD 09. I have used it successfully with 07, but for some reason it will not run in 09.
The mouse software doesnt recognize that the program is running, and there is no toolbar like there is in 07. I have read the readme, and all i see is "manual install", but it does not provide any instructions to do so.

Any help that you can provide will be much appreciated!

2 things to try:
1. Close all running applications, go to control panel
Click on add remove programs
Select 3DConnexion.
Click on change
let the driver reinstall.
Next reopen Autocad and check to see if the plugin installed and is loaded in 09.
Other option is to download the current driver and install.

2. Make sure you donot have any applications running.
Go to our website and download the current driver.
Next run the installation.
Choose Modify
Do you still require 07?
If not unselect 07 plugin otherwise
The plugin for both version of 07 and 09 will get installed.
