I run Autocad 2013 on Windows Vista 32 Bit Home Basic, so I don’t know why it is claimed there is no support for it. Does this mean hotfixes and the like won’t apply if your product is installed on Vista, or that it isn’t supposed to work period on that particular OS?
Sorry for the confusion..Its just that I’ve seen this repeated a few times across the web and I’d like to know in what sense it isn’t supported, since as I said already, I run 2013 on a PC with Vista Home Basic.
