Best windows operating system for Revit/Autocad/3ds Max on 2.8GHz,4GB Pro

From the reviews I've read Autocad seems to have some trouble running on Windows 7. Has anyone been able to run Revit/3ds Max on Windows 7 (It's not listed as a compatible system...)
Would it be better to purchase Vista or XP instead?
also-I'm not sure if I should go with the 64 bit or 32 bit operating system.
Ugh...I'm lost! Thank you for your help!

I am going through the same problem with v9 and 2008. I am running a MacPro workstation with bootcamp to Vista. I was using v9 fine until I upgraded to 2008 and then the licensing issues happened when switching between Mac/PC. I also upgraded to Leopard so I don't know who is to blame. I want to know if Autdesk changed the licensing technology or if the newer bootcamp in Leopard is the problem. Now I'm wishing I didn't get the Mac thinking I could run core apps like 3DSMax.

Any suggestion about what would be the best GPU (non quadro) for After Effects CS4

I going to build a pc and need advice on what graphic card to use with after effects cs 4.
I have experiece with opengl problems due to graphic card no perfecly compatible with adobe applications and
I would really like to have som ideas on what card to buy.. I dont want to spend money for the high priced quadro cards...
Ive just read the thread of somebody in another forum who stated that the Nvidia GeForce GTX260 has been certified by Adobe to be fully compatible with CS4 ? Right now I own Geforce GTX275 and that card have many minor opengl issues.
Thank you.

Hi again , and as always , thank you for your fast responses.
You wrote something about changing the pci bus timing, I am not sure how to do that, what I know is that my card is set to 16X.
I never changed anyting when I installed the card.
Maybe It could be a os issue... have you tested your card in windows 7 or windows xp. It may be stupid running a new os as windows 7.

Is Mountain Lion the most current operating system for MacBook Pro?

I am wondering if Mountain Lion is the most current operating system for the MacBook Pro. I am under the impression that 'Mavericks' is for the desktop Mac, am I correct? Thank You.

Actually, Mavericks is the current version of OS X replacing Mountain Lion. Mavericks will be replaced later this year by Yosemite. The upgrade to Mavericks is free. You can download the installer from the App Store.

The Mac Pro's are pretty killer for AE. On a Winbox, you simply get the
best processor(s) you can afford, max out the memory, get a good board
like ASUS or a Tyan if your really into finnicky thoroughbreds. The Vid
card will have little to do with AE, so research that on its own merits.

Which is the best antivirus and spyware for Mac?

Good morning,
Because of schoolwork and extracurricular activities, I am constantly sending and receiving e-mails and messages to and from PCs and other Apple devices, like IPads. Two years ago I purchased a 120,12GB MacBook Air and, until a few months ago, it went perfectly well.
I am not sure what happened, but lately, every time I go online, whatever I click -whether it is a random letter in a website, or a blank space in a page, anything- an advert appears or a new -unwanted- tab opens with publicity and such, the kind of additional tabs that open when you are watching movies online in a random website, but this time, it is happening with every website (even the Apple site) and almost constantly. I suspect it is something I downloaded or maybe something I received from an infected PC that I got a virus or problem from.
I tried using the MacKeeper software, but it is not working for me (?). Also I tried blocking pop-ups (I use Google Chrome), Java Script, automatic downloads, complements and everything I could when going online, but it has not gotten better over the last 9 months. My parents also recommended me a very good technician, who I personally know and has solved many of my previous problems, but he could not help me, in this situation.
For that reason, I have been considering either purchasing a good antivirus for my Mac or a new Mac and an antivirus for it, to prevent future problems like this one.
Either way, the question is the same,
Which is the best antivirus and spyware software for Mac?
Thank you so much for your attention.

Please get rid of MacKeeper, as it and most other such junk software will do more harm than good.

Which is the best/popular video chat for iPad2?

...of course other than FaceTime. I want to be able to video chat or video conference with anyone, even if they don't have Apple devices. Which works the best AND is accessible to everyone? Does Google video work on the iPad2 as a stand alone or does it require a separate app? Would I be better off setting up a Skype account? What about iChat? Does it integrate lots of different platforms?
Other suggestions?

Yes continued research after posting the question told me that iOS devices don't have iChat. oops.
Ok so one vote for Skype (which I will probably get anyway)... at least for it's popularity. What about Google or other apps? I'd like to hear feedback on them as well.

Error message "You are running an operating system that After Effects no longer supports. Refer to the system requirements for a full list of supported platforms." when trying to download free trial of after effects. What do I do?

I need help, I am an idiot and have an assignment due today at 1:30pm. I thought that I would be able to do a simple download, but I get this error msg and I don't know what other options I have. Is it 100% impossible for me to download this on my machine?

Hi ,
I am afraid you would not be able to use After Effects CC 2014 and CC, as there were not testes on version 10.6.8.
I have two suggestions to make for you.
Upgrade your machine to latest hardware and software as per system requirements and try to make the most of it.
Multicore Intel processor with 64-bit support
Mac OS X v10.8 or v10.9
4 GB of RAM (8 GB recommended)
5 GB of available hard-disk space for installation; additional free space required during installation (cannot install on a volume that uses a case-sensitive fi le system or on removable flash storage devices)
Additional disk space for disk cache (10 GB recommended)
1440 x 900 display
OpenGL 2.0–capable system
QuickTime 7.6.6 software required for QuickTime features
Optional: Adobe-certified GPU card for GPU-accelerated ray-traced 3D renderer
Internet connection and registration are necessary for required software activation, validation of subscriptions, and access to online services.*
2. You can try to use After Effects version CS 6 on your machine.

The ideal hardware setup / arrangement for After Effects?

Hello there,
Looking to buy some new hardware and am hoping to find some advice on the ideal hardware config for making After Effects scream. I find this questions is sorely lacking answers on the Internet beyond the basics of 'boot from an SSD' and the like... So I am hoping someone can answer these questions once and for all.
Two things I am after:
1. Fast working performance in AE. So when I move a layer about I am able to see it move smoothly in real-time as I drag it about with my mouse. Right now I get either stuttered movement when moving larger layers about, or the image begins to pixelate/drop res to such a horrible extent that I can not see what I am doing. The problem extends to when I am working with a large project file, with many layers, I get nasty lag when attempting to move about in the timeline, opening comps, etc. Everything starts to move quite slowly once I go past a certain number of layers. What upgrades will speed this element, the day to day working rather than rendering, up the most?
2. Faster rendering. Though this is not as key as point number 1.
I am guessing this performance will he helped by a beefier graphics card and more/faster RAM? I currently have a GTX 660ti 2GB and am upgrading to a GTX980 4GB, so hoping that will improve this.
I also have 64 GB of 1600 speed ram that AE happily consumes so think that base is covered. My CPU is a 3930k that is slightly overclocked. It gets maxed out when multicore rendering is happening but not otherwise. I've heard turning hyperthreading off in the BIOS can actually help AE performance?
I am booting/running AE from an SSD (Samsung 840 Pro), and have set my media cache to another dedicated SSD (Samsung 840 Pro). I run/keep my project files on yet another SSD and have other drives holing media.
My drive config plan is this:
- Boot from one 240GB SSD.
- Project files and current working media on 2x 1TB SSDs in RAID 0 (backed up)
- Further media storage on 2x 3TB HDDs in RAID 0 (backed up)
Now I am wondering if I can simply use the 2TB of SSD goodness as both the location for my AE media cache AND my project files/working media? Or am I better off having three fast and seperate storage locations? 1 for the boot, 2 for the project files and media, 3 for the cache?
Otherwise I am running AE on a Hackintosh 3930k CPU overclocked slightly, 64 GB RAM, Sabertooth X79 mobo, 660ti graphics card.
All comments/advice links much appreciated. Apologies if this has already been addressed elsewhere but I have yet to find a detailed response and only generalized comments such as 'use a fast drive for your media cache.'
What I would really like to know is the BEST drive configuration, the questioned detailed above...And what will increase the speed and quality of my real-time workflow in AE the most. Quickly navigating projects without lag, opening detailed comps with many layers, and moving large images around without lag or pixelation.
Thank you!

for After Effects advice, Eric on the forum here can give you the best info. However, I have seen him say many times that AE is MEMORY INTENSIVE,....the more, the better. You HAVE 64GB...that seems very adequate for most workflows.
The OTHER thing he says is that other than Ray-Tracing, the GPU is HARDLY used at all.....CPU speed and number of cores are a BIG factor in AE performance.....your 3930k overclocked should be adequate....the MORE OC, the BETTER.
Next is the drive system....you have NOT described EXACTLY what you are doing NOW....you mentioned what your PLAN is,but for , right NOW you said : " I run/keep my project files on yet another SSD and have other drives holing media. "
HERE is where you MAY be doing something that may....or may NOT.....be causing slowdowns.   With AE it is RECOMMENDED to use a dedicated drive for the "Global Performance Cache"...the HIGHER the speed of this drive, the BETTER, as AE STORES already "rendered" frames, ( for "previews", of course), on it so it DOESN"T have to RE-RENDER ALL the frames all over again every time you make a change to your work !!! So, in YOUR case : your OS drive is great...Samsung Pro models are the BEST...you have the 840 Pro ,which is only SLIGHTLY behind the 850 Pro in performance. ANOTHER 840,or, 850 Pro would be GREAT as the " Global performance cache drive" AND would also be the place to put ALL previews,Cache files, media cache files for Premier Pro,too. The overall speed and less latency of the SATAIII SSD will surpass the performance of a 2 disk RAID 0....even a 3 disk RAID 0.
Next....the speed at which you SERVE UP the video files can be important in preventing a slowdown.....ESPECIALLY if using large, uncompressed files. Here, you have options.....it is NOT necessary to put your project files on a SEPARATE drive from your media...you just want to make sure that the drive with your media and project files is as fast as the OTHERS in your system ! SO, you COULD use a THIRD SSD as a "working drive" for ACTIVE projects only.....a 1TB SSD perhaps...Crucial M550 is CHEAPER than the Samsung and as good as the 840 pros. As the CAPACITY of SSDs are small...you would MOVE all media and completed project files to HDDs for archiving and storage....the use of RAID with your existing HDDs would NOT be needed for this function.
Another option would be to take FOUR quality 1TB HDDs...( the Seagates are selling for $44 right now), and create a RAID 0 off the motherboard to have a large 4TB capacity AND speed similar to the SSDs!   WARNING !!! the odds of ONE drive failing are BIG....you would immediately lose ALL your data !! HOWEVER....if you back up that RAID 0 RELIGIOUSLY....you would have NO worries. One way to do THAT is to buy a 4TB ENTERPRISE level 7200rpm HDD....Seagate has one with a 128 MB cache that does over 200MB/sec. for just over $300.
Even with all this covered, there are MANY factors which can CHOKE a fast computer....the CODECS you are using have a HUGE bearing on performance. The VERSION of After Effects is important...NEWEST versions have the BEST performance with features like the "global performance cache", etc. The use of "third party plug-ins" can CRIPPLE a machine if these are NOT written to take advantage of "hyperthreading",OR, are "32 bit" and HUMBLE your machine because AE is NOW 64 bit!!
Make sure you have Windows fully updated and the newest drivers for your video card. Then , make sure your Windows POWER SETTINGS are set to MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE when"plugged in"....the DEFAULT Windows settings...even under "high performance" has setttings that will THROTTLE your GPU and CPU if you don't change them.....I found THAT out the hard way!
Finally, make sure , in AE settings, you have set the"memory allocation" correctly...there is a formula regarding how much to assign on a "per CPU core basis". There ALSO is a selection to make for "allowing multiple frames" to be processed...make sure THAT is set correctly.
Good luck !!     I hope this helps!

IMac - Decent System for After Effects?

We are starting to do heavy effects work at this company I just joined and they outfitted me with this iMac:
27-inch iMac Late 2012
Processor 3.4 GHz Intel Core i7
Memory 32 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB
HDD - 1.12 TB Fusion Drive
It seems like a pretty powerful system but I have to say this first project I am working on isnt very impressive. Ram previews aren't as efficient as they need to be and the overall performance is lacking. I would imagine the new Mac Pro's would be a better option but before I request a different machine I want to know if I am just being too critical. What do you guys think?

It seems like a decent system. It's certainly faster and better than any computer that anyone was using for After Effects only a few years ago, even if it might not be the very fastest thing now.
