Please provide the following information when contacting Technical Support:

  • Company and contact (phone and e-mail) information
  • Product Version and service pack or maintenance release version
  • Product Serial Number
  • Video card manufacturer and model
  • Video card driver and version
  • Hardware/OS information (i.e., RAM, OS version and type, network type, etc.)
  • SIM Number
  • Have a complete description of your hardware, including CPU, mouse, processor and memory.  
  • An accurate, complete description of the question or issue. Send screen shots and notes for specific comments. Microsoft Paint can be used to capture and annotate an image. Use Alt-Print Screen and paste the results into a paint program.
  • If you notice any systematic pattern at all, suggest that to the technician. It might give him a clue. "It always happens on assembly mates", "It only happens when I use my spaceball", etc.
  • Try to duplicate the problem before calling. Our technician may require you to duplicate the problem while you are on the phone.
  • Be prepared to submit geometry, NCI files and other data related to your problem.

In addition, the support engineer may need:

  • The data files that are causing the problems. Remember that sending a drawing or an assembly isn't enough. You must also send the parts. These files should be zipped to save space.
  • The performance and SolidWorks log files can also help provide debug information to tech support. If you have these, send them along also.
