<p>Actually, I can assure you I was VERY lucky!</p>
<p>At work, our IT department just replaced all our Xp machines with Win7/8's. The older stuff wont even try to install and every other install cant find some resource or even worse, I cant authorize any of it so im dead in the water at work, until I can get the bosses to upgrade me again. </p>

<p>I not 100% good with the stuff that did install at home. None of the functions that involve windows explorer work right. AR4 will generate thumbnails, but only display in the acad/ar4 windows. Also, I cant edit or save materials, so i'm stuck with what ever collections I had saved from before. It makes for tons more post work in photoshop.

<p>Do you mean to draw 2D staircase or 3D one? If you haven't any arch plugin for AutoCAD, you can construct 3D stair outside of it and import it as textured mesh. One good example is the following:</p>
<p>Download and install free Sketchup (if you haven't the Pro already). Download e.g. GK Ware Stair maker from <a href="http://sketchucation.com/plugin/934-gkware_stairmakerhttp://" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">here</a>. (oops, it's not free :( ) Make a stair, save as SU file version maximum 8…</p>

<p>I did nothing special other then had it run the compatibility wizard (or what ever its called).</p>

<p>This is my first new pc for some time and I'm new to win 8 or this 64 bit thing : )</p>
<p>I was able to get 2004 running , but everything past that (- 2011) had bugs and wouldn't authorize. I own and have the codes from my last good install on xp. They all failed. but they all start, they just want an authorization code. </p>

<p>Hi Kevin,</p>
<p>How exactly did you do that, I mean, to make AutoCAD 2002 to run on 64bit system? It was one of the reasons my wife's machine has now 32 bit system, as her architectural application runs on AutoCAD 2004, which I was unable to run on 64 bit Windows 7 (had no result setting compatibility to run as Windows XP SP3 or lower versions of 32 bit OS). Do you…</p>

Do you run Acad 2002 on some virtual machine like Oracle Virtual Box or VM Ware? I'd tried Oracle's solution, but AutoCAD 2004 didn't work there.

<p>AC 2002 was the highest I could get it to work on. I think it does most stairs but I don't remember. I don't get much call for stairs around here. Land of the single story ranch around here.</p>
<p>The only bummer is none of the slide libraries work so I don't get to see what I building until after I build it. </p>
