Yes looks like he's going to pay me to wait for the dwg's to open.... I guess. Once they are open they run and fine.

I don't know what else to do. I'm not feeling to lucky now lol however I'm always open to suggestions.

Thanks a lot for your time with this I really appreciate it.

Once they load they run fine.  Hmmmm.  What does the path to one of these drawing files look like?

I think this is something to do with windows not AutoCAD because when I put the dwg on a usb and load it into the engineers machine it works fine.

What is the difference between the two machines?  Is the engineer's computer better?

So the only way you two share files is if you walk them over to his computer on a USB stick?  Please tell me he doesn't make you use a floppy disk.

Too bad you do some 3D too.  If it were just 2D I'd have a solution for you in a blink of an eye.

Are you having trouble browsing to select your file? Does the delay happen immediately after you issue the open command - or doe it bog down after you've selected a file to open?

The drawings take a long time to open.  Once opened the OP says they are fine.

Draw your own conclusions as the same drawings experience no problem on his boss's computer.  All this has been covered in the previous posts.  Might want to acquaint yourself with them.
