There was a 64-bit version of AutoCAD 2008? Really?
I don't think the CADforum is the kind of site that would be handing out keygens. You're probably looking for a warez site.
You want a version of CAD that will run fast on your laptop? What are the FULL specs? Have you looked at AutoCAD 2011?

Is that a dedicated graphics card or an onboard graphics chip? A dedicated graphics card, in my opinion, is always better/faster.
I'm pretty sure 2008 was not available as a 64-bit app. You must have a 32-bit version. You might run into a couple of minor problems regarding performance on your laptop.
Will you be doing mostly 2D, 3D or a combination of both?

It is slow in 2D as well? Was it a 64-bit version?

Well technically it is possible to install 32-bit software on a computer that uses a 64-bit OS. I know it because I've done it on two computers. I have AutoCAD 2004 (32-bit) running on one computer that runs Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. I have AutoCAD 2007 running on another computer that has Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit as the OS.
You might want to look into a program called Longbow.
BTW...if you have a 64-bit OS try taking a look at your folders using Windows Explorer. Do you see a folder named Programs (x86)? If you do, that is where Windows places any 32-bit program you load.

What version of Windows 7 do you have installed? Is it Home Premium by any chance? If so, then you can run AutoCAD 2008 (32-bit) on your 64-bit computer only if you utilize a program called Longbow Converter.
