preshm15:

i am a guru to came you help me wit the serial key for 06, the one i have last f or only 30 day

OK preshm15, the '06 version of the software does not require a serial number to work continuously. what you need to do is to CRACK it . to do this you must have the full installation files. in the extracted installation files, there is a folder called "Crack".
try running the program immediately after installation, a page comes up which which asks you whether you want to activate the software or just run the trial version. In fact the option to choose is " Enter aactivation code". once you pick this the ctivation page comes up. in the crack folder that i described above, there is a keygen program there. open it and copy the request code from the activation page into the keygen program the activation code will come up immediately, copy the activation code into it provided space in the activation page and fill other information required then move to the next page. After all, the program will run for as long as you want.

Now i know i should do some apologizing for the break it was due to some pressures.
@Schibaba.
AutoCAD is not only for engineers just has nothing is for a particular profession any longer.
now today i want to talk on the DRAW toolbar. this is the most important in AutoCAD 'cos "WITHOUT IT YOU CAN DO NOTHING".
Now the commands on this toolbar are creative in nature the create things (objects). Object creation starts with point specification. To specify a point in AutoCAD have a number of methods but the easiest is to pick a command and just click a stating point on the model screen. to draw most of this basic objects listed in the DRAW toolbar, just specify a starting point and follow the command line. Pls let me know you observations.

So how long will this madness go on. What really get me sad about it all is that our government is not responsible to the safety of its people at all. this issue has been there long before Obasanjo came into power and it seem he is living it worse than he met it. Now the meeting held in Abuja on Thursday involved all stakeholders but obviously excluding the militants in the region. Why should our government keep on avoiding dialog? At lest for starters.

@2old4dat
that is what we are doing via this medium.
Now my next tip will be little complicated. it about the bar that is below the comandline called the status bar. Now i must say to fully exhaust the functions of the status bar cannot be adequtely be done via this forum but i will give a seemingly usable intro.
the status bar responsible for accuracy and time management while drawing. it contains commands that will equip the user to draw accurately and at a good speed. Now on that bar you'll see SNAP,GRID,ORTHO,POLAR etc
now, Snap and grid work together like a graph sheet. Once the gird command is activated, there will be dots arrayed orthogonally or isometrically (according to the setting) over your drawing area. now if snap is on, your crosshair will be snapping to the grid dots.
for ortho: it allows you to draw parfectly horizontal or vertical lines while polar allows you to draw them diagonally at a specified angle to the horizontal.
OSNAP and OSNAP Tracking: there certain points on any object drawn that has some defining attributes. Now when you draw a line you expect it to have a starting point and an endpoint. Lines also have midpoints, now it is the object snap (OSNAP) that see to it that this point are indicated once your crosshair passes over the points. the OSNAP trackinghelps you to track the line of action of these points.
Now this is how far i can go this morning. to get more you can view help files on your AutoCAD program till my blog is ready.

Now I'm particularly unhappy about the turn out of last night's episode. Oh how sad that the my sweet Rhona is on her way home. I can believe that the girls actually made Damy to fill smart with is sorry ass by voting him to stay before them. it was really pathetic.
Well the show is getting more interesting and i must say things are still far from being over.

@Loverbwoy. Good that you've got your AutoCAd 06. i am moving on to Autodesk Inventor 11 not solidworks.
alright moving ahead, let's take a short intro. Prominent on your screen after opening your program is the drawing area (black, by default), all your drawings will be done in this area. below it is the commandline and you get your feedbacks from AutoCAD on this line.
Rule 1: NEVER TAKE YOUR EYES OFF THE COMMANDLINE. it is what keeps you in control.
on the top and at the sides of the drawing area are the toolbars. they contain icons which you will be using to command AutoCAD. Note that there are about 30 of these toolbars and they can be accessed by right clicking on any icon in toolbar. after right clicking you will observed that some are checked while others are not the checked ones are the ones that are active on your profile. Now uncheck all the toolbars except the STANDARD, DRAW and MODIFY toolbars.

Well Loverbwoy, u can take us there. I'm quite new on nairaland.

Aliright, i have decided to be posting some tips till i get my blog working since i am yet to meet other AutoCAD gurus on nairaland.
Ok today i want to say that the first step to a successful software learning is to get the software. so all interested AutoCAD learners should get the software.
then install it. the latest version is the AutoCAD 2007 and it requires you having at least a Pentium 4 motherboard, with a RAM size of 512MB. Also your processor speed should be about 2.0 GHz.
the 2006 version is still relevant and i suggest you go for that for now. 2007 could be a little confusing.
so, let get by with that for the moment.

loverbwoy, what i meant by 1-on-1 is a proper formal training and that entails contact. but now that you said you are on the other side of the pond, it might be impossible. but not to worry i.m setting up a blog that you can get quality tips from. i let out the link soon.
Note, joeevu

I recently gathered from the media that the Egbin Thermal station in 2005 slashed its 1500MW electricity capacity to about 900MW. But as at today it has been slashed to 100MW. Then it was reported that we should expect highly eratic power supply in and around the Lagos metropolis.
I now thought to myself that if in 2005 when the station's capacity was still high we did not get the power, only God knows what eratic power supply now will look like.

my major is mechanical designs. Both 2D and 3D modelling.
Loverbwoy, even if i can take you time is very significant constraint.
Would u mind a 1-on-1 training?

I am an AutoCAD guru so i'm searching for people with the same flair on Nairaland.
