AutoCAD 2005Configuration:
Am VERY new to AutoCad... had it (AutoCAD2005) running fine for a month or so... then suddenly get the following message (whenever I try to start it) and the program simply aborts.

AutoCAD Error Aborting
FATAL ERROR: All of the possible directories for storing temporary files either do not exist or are read only. Please correct this situation before running AutoCad again.

Have followed instructions from http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/item?siteID=123112&;id=2886797&linkID=2475323

and created \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"temp\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" folders everywhere I can think of INCLUDING C:\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Temp (which is NOT read only despite what the above error message says) but all to no avail.

Have uninstalled and installed many times.

Have re-installed AutoCAD 2000 (which used to work) but the same thing is now happening to that.

Even re-installed an ancient version of AutoCAD14 that also used to work fine to try that and it now freezes on start up and when I check I find it is using 100% of the CPU.

Another error message I\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'ve had is

AutoCAD – [Drawing]: acad.exe – Application Error The instruction at \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"0x7c80979d\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" referenced memory at \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"0x015508a0\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\". The memory could not be \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"written\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\".


At my wits end an would appreciate any suggestions. Not really interested in the 2000 and 14… just the 2005.

Many thanks
