Nadogradnjom računala obično dolazi do nadogradnje operacijskog sustava, što ponekad za posljedicu ima nekompatibilnost sa AutoCADom. Donosimo popis verzija i kompatibilnosti sa Windows operacijskim sustavima.
Iz različitih razloga može biti potrebno nadograditi računalo ili kupiti novo. Naravno, radi podrške za najnoviji hardver potrebno je instalirati i odgovarajući operacijski sustav. Ovo za posljedicu može imati nekompatibilnost vaše verzije AutoCADa sa operacijskim sustavom i nemogućnost rada. U tom slučaju potrebno je nadograditi AutoCAD na odgovarajuću (obično najnoviju) verziju. Budući da uskoro više neće biti moguće nadograđivati AutoCAD ni na jedan drugačii način osim kroz pretplatu, preporučamo da razmislite o tomu. Postoji čak i akcija vezana uz ukidanje nadogradnji.
