I am hoping somebody out there has an autocad program that works with vista 64 bit systems.

My Autocad R14 - circa 1995-6? Will not run on my 64 bit vista computer.

Doesn't need to be a new program, just one that will work, and will allow me to access my R14 drawings. I finally decided to go back and look at my old work, and play around a little, only to find out R14 won't work : (

Thanks for any one eyed support! ; )

Try this:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/free-cad/

No clue if it will even open an R14 file, but its worth a shot!

You can try Siemens Solid Edge which is free or DraftSight from the same people that bring Solidworks.

If you need 3D then you'll have to look around.

I know Solid Edge opens most DXF because it is the CAD that I'm using, not sure at all about Draftsight but I think they have a PDF user manual so you can flip through it to find out.

Call me dumb, but can you not run the others in Compatibility mode?
