      I have Pro Ver 7.0.1024, a Dell Precision M65 laptop. The laptop had two 1 gig memory modules in place for a total of 2 gigs of memory, operating system, XP pro, Ver 2002, Service Pack 2. I had installed, Qty of 2, 2 gigs memory modules for a total of 4 gigs, of which the computer show a total of 3 gigs.

      After the install, I cannot export to DWG or DFX. Error, saying maybe I have the file open with another program.

      I re-installed Sketchup, still the same problem.

      So is Sketchup not able to use the extra memory? I really need the ACAD export.

      Attached is the error window.

        Hi Ken,

        I have altogether 2 Gigs of memory but can export fine (so could I with my old desktop with 512 Mb memory only until it crashed for good).
        When you reinstalled SU, did you use the originally downloaded installer file or did you download it again? Maybe the installer was corrupt somehow.

          I used the same download that gave me ver Ver 7.0.1024. Which I again downloaded just a couple of weeks ago. And Sketchup worked OK, except the problem I have been having making components, which I still haven't sorted out. Now, I just make a group before trying to make a component. Haven't been able to find out the problem, so making a group was my work around.

          However, with this problem, on further investigation, I can export 3d DWG. So it is only with the 2d dwg I am having a problem.

          Thanks for you very quick reply Gaieus.

            Well, it does indeed sound buggy. Problem is that I can't really think of any obvious cause for these glitches.
