Installation
This chapter provides information about installing and activating Autodesk
Navisworks on a workstation, as well as deploying Autodesk Navisworks from a
network location.
Quick Start to Stand-Alone Installation
This section provides step-by-step instructions about how to prepare,
and then install Autodesk Navisworks.
If you have never installed the product before, you should familiarize
yourself with the entire installation process and options before
beginning.
For information about installing network-licensed or multi-seat
stand-alone versions of the program, see “
Install Autodesk
Navisworks for Multiple Users
” on page 28.
Prepare for Installation
To prepare for installation, you should review the system
requirements, understand administrative permission requirements,
locate your Autodesk Navisworks Simulate 2010 serial number and
product key, and close all running applications.
Complete these tasks, and you are ready to begin installing Autodesk
Navisworks Simulate 2010.
System Requirements for Stand-Alone
Installation
The first task you need to complete is to make sure that your
computer meets the minimum system requirements. If your system
does not meet these requirements, problems can occur, both within
Autodesk Navisworks 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.
NOTE Both the 32-bit version and 64-bit version of Autodesk Navisworks
Simulate 2010 can be installed on a 64-bit version of Windows, but the
64-bit version of Autodesk Navisworks Simulate 2010 cannot be installed
on a 32-bit version of Windows.
