    Posted: 19.Jan.2011 at 11:03
Hi all;
        I am new here,so forgive me if there is any mistake i might make.My situation is a little bit strange.
 
I am using AutoCad 2004 with a bunch of dwg files, among which some are password protected. It is all ok to open those normal dwg,i.e, without password, however,my autocad 2004 failed to open any password-protected dwg files even if i key in the correct password.
 
The programe output is like:
 
Fatal error: unhandle access violation reading 0x0003c exception at 646b8513h
 
Measures i have already take:
  1. scan the registry to clean those rubbish info
  2. scan disk in case of some virus infection
  3. reinstall the auto cad software,still no result
  4. search the web for same situation as mine

SO, it is weird to encounter this, i am looking forward to you guy's help!

Thanks in advance !

Hmm that sounds strange...

I have seen such problems but that was with closing the document never open it...

It seems that your AutoCAD has a bug in it... Do you update the AutoCAD?

You can open a new drawing and drag there your drawing in (the dwg document) maybe you can open it at that way...

Open a new docuement en try "i" from insert to open it at that way...
 
Try with a newer AutoCAD and on a other pc....
 
I can help you with that...

The error is probably not related to password but it is rather an internal error (structure, damaged DWG, corrupted drawing object). Try to INSERT it in an empty drawing.

Then how to explain why all the non-password dwg are opened smoothly,as for the protected ones, none of them can be open without the error according to statement of my friend.

i did not check all the dwgs one by one,but that is what she said.

thanks.

Try to Insert it in a new drawing by 2 options
 
- drag the file in a new drawing
 
- use "i" from insert to insert the dwg in a drawing.

hi,Rikky, I have tried both the two suggestions you said, but still the same error. Any thoughts on this ? By the way, my friend open those files(same version of autocad) on another computer and that all goes well. Weird, is the problem related to the autocad itself or the os or software configuration ?
