Revit will run on both 64 bit vista and 32 bit vista. With 64 bit you just need to tell your OS to run Revit as a 32 bit program.

OK, Revit 2008 works on Vista Ultimate 64. It seems faster Probably because the Os background operations are running fester. Revit still runs at 32 bit. I'm running a dual core AMD Opteron64 2.2ghz overclocked to 2.7Ghz with 2gb ram and an Ati Radeon x1900 I should get more ram 'cause it runs at 75% most of the time, but i'm thinking of rebuilding the whole rig.

The only time I hit 75% with Revit running is if I'm running two instances of revit and rendering a scene in Maya at the same time. I wonder if it's a matter of running the 32 bit operation on a native 32bit OS.

Another Fate tempter here  Vista Ultimate 64bit AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual 6000 (3.0ghz) ASUS SLI Vista Premium MoBoard 2gb ram nvidia GeForce 7950 GT Revit runs beautifully! I did not even have to jump any hoops or shut anything down. I have the Architecture Suite version, and the AutoCAD, however is behaving badly. heh. In fact, I am just now finishing my OS re-installation number 2!!! Oh well. I'm tired of CAD anyhow! :D

Someone please tell me what is the point of running windows Vista in 32 bit? Does Revit not work as a 64 bit program? AUGI forum has a guideline that says Revit wil run best on 64 bit machines.Am I missing something?sorry, I am an architect, not a comp whiz...thank you,-m

I have tried all the tricks in this forum and still have no luck running Revit 9.1 in Windos Vista Home Premium 6.00.6000 in 32 bit mode. Do I need a different version of Revit 9.1 or of Vista?

Not only does Revit run on Vista64 but it runs flawlessly. It was actually the reason i gave up on XP.On XP Revit2009 crashed all the time (think 3-4 times/day). On Vista64 it has yet to crash once. Fast, stable, robust performance. Regarding compatibily, i'm running AutoCAD LT 2006 on the same rig without any issues and without using any patch. Just tweak the Compatibility tab and check the "run as administrator" option. Overall, nowadays i'm a believer : i can't imagine going back to XP.

I would get Revit 2008 because the problems that earlier versions cause make the wole process a nightmare. It is possible to get early versions of Revit 9.0 to work by following the guidelines in this thread, but 9.1 won't work and AutoDesk aren't bothered because they want you to buy 2008 / 2009 versions anyway.

Revit works in any weather, but if it is raining you need to come inside. This is usually not to do with Revit, but is a hardware problem, as many computers struggle with excessive moisture. I also find it difficult to work when it is too windy. Revit also works with Vista.
