LATEST SERVICE PACKS:

Autodesk Inventor® 2008 (All Versions) - Service Pack 1
Inventor® 2008 SP1

For those of you still on Inventor 11 and waiting for more info on Service Pack 3, your wait is over.

Here are the procedures Tim at Genesis Fixtures has found to be successful in loading SP3.

Try this.
1. Make sure you restart your computer.
2. Make sure no programs are open (especially Inventor)
3. Install SP3 or reinstall.
4. Restart when asked to restart or if not asked, restart anyway.
5. Then start Inventor as normal.

Note:
As usual, Inventor on the first restart will take extra time loading because what it’s doing in memory and startup instructions, then it will start much faster the next time.

Inventor® 11 SP3
