I'm running the Windows 8 Consumer Preview, which comes with 4.5 of the net framework whereas AutoCAD 2013 needs 4.0 and handles this badly. I've heard people succesfully running Autocad 2013 on Win8 but arent specific as to how they do it. I on the other hand have no ribbon when running it and i get the following errors.
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT de****** registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
