Alibre software really lags during various processes
Our Drafting and Computer Aided Design 30 class is just about complete their final project (Mars Rover) and we have a concern about the the time it takes to process the various tasks in Alibre (3D AutoCAD software) on my lab's machines. It commonly takes 5-10 minutes to process and render commands and tasks (saving is really slow as well)...
my question: Is there anything that can be done to speed this up? It might be a combination of slow video memory and under-powered RAM and and CPU power. It also might be that they say that the OS of preference is Windows XP. Your thoughts on what can be done? It appears we meet the system requirements of Alibre...
We are presently running this hardware:
P4 1.6 GHz. CPU
Windows 98 SE
256 MB RAM
Intel onboard graphics - (Intel(R) 82845G Graphics Controller)
