Requirements
Here are the minimum system requirements for both 32-bit and 64-bit operating
systems.
Recommended requirements: In addition to the minimum requirements, these
system requirements also include recommended requirements for memory and
graphics cards. The recommended operating system is Windows 7 (64-bit).
AutoCAD Architecture 2012 System Requirements for 32-bit Workstations (page
31)
AutoCAD Architecture 2012 System Requirements for 64-bit Workstations (page
33)
Requirements for Group Policy (GPO) Deployments (page 35)
System Requirements for 32-bit Workstations
Make sure that your computer meets the minimum system requirements. If
your system does not meet these requirements, problems can occur, both within
AutoCAD Architecture and at the operating system level.
Whether your Windows operating system is the 32-bit or the 64-bit version,
the version is automatically detected during installation. A 64-bit version of
AutoCAD Architecture cannot be installed on a 32-bit system and vice-versa.
