8) Are there any menus across the top ?
If not then try reloading the acad.mnu file, use menuload to do so

[annie]

but I can not load.
on menu toolbar I have only four menu: file, visualizza (in english I think is "display"), window and ?
if I try with display/toolbar i can not make nothing because "toolbars" in in grey so you can not choose.
I wish to have well explained my problem.
also seller can not help me.
they think problem is file acad.cui but also this file i can not load.
thanks for answers.

8) Type menuload into the command prompt then browse for acad.mnu under support directory of your autocad installation.

Eddie,

I think You are wrong.
acad.mnu-> acad.cui in 2006

I am facing the same problem.
after installation of acad2006 I see only 4 menus File, view, window and help.
With menuload command I can brows the acad.cui file but when I try to load it nothing happens. If fact it does not get loaded.

I am trying this on XP with SP2. But I could install acad2006 successfully on win2000.

Any clue ?

Autocad 2006 has been running fine for past few months, Tried it today and all i've got is the 4 menu files on top of screen!

Apparently this is a common problem.

I have been told there is a patch on the AutoCAD site to resolve this issue, but unfortunatly I don't know where nor do I have a link, as mine was fine, so I haven't looked it up.

Hope this was of some help?!

This from the autodesk website...

When starting AutoCAD most menus not loaded

Published date: 2005-10-10
ID: TS1051850

Applies to:
AutoCAD® 2006


Issue

When starting AutoCAD, most of the AutoCAD-specific menus are not loaded. When you try to manually load the menus, the message *invalid* is returned on the command line.

Solution

This can be the result of the msxml3.dll file becoming unregistered.

To register this file in Windows, go to Start > Run and enter regsvr32 msxml3.dll. Then restart AutoCAD.
