Action May Be Required Prior to Installing CATIA V5R18 on WinXP Workstations
Prior to installing CATIA V5R18 on a workstation running Windows XP Professional Edition SP2, ensure that Microsoft Patch KB926255 is installed. Workstations running Windows XP Professional x64 Edition will not require this patch.

If the required patch is not installed, the machine will either reboot or experience a "blue screen" part way through the install, thus making it impossible to install the CATIA V5R18 Code. If an attempt to install the
CATIA code without the patch occurs, an uninstall of the CATIA code will also not be possible until some registry edits are performed.

To determine if this patch is already installed, open a DOS prompt and issue
cd C:\WINDOWS
and then
dir *KB926255*

If this returns an entry, then the patch has been installed. If not, this patch can be installed from the following Microsoft link:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS06-075.mspx

Once this patch is installed, you should not experience this CATIA V5R18 install problem.

This patch requirement is documented in the CATIA V5R18 Program Directory, under CATIA Software Requirements and is specified as:

MS06-075 : Vulnerability in Windows could allow elevation of privilege:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/MS06-075.mspx

Note: The details of this problem are documented here:
http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=886&context=SW860&uid=swg21272180

ENOVIAvpm 1.6 & V5R16 Interoperability Support
The following combinations were announced as supported:
  • ENOVIAvpm 1.5 with V5R16
  • ENOVIAvpm 1.6 with V5R17
In order to meet some customers' requirements, we are announcing support of ENOVIAvpm 1.6 interoperability with V5R16.

Customers requiring support for this configuration must:
  • explicitly request it through your IBM sales team,
  • provide a detailed migration plan showing a detailed plan and date when ENOVIAvpm V1.6 will be running with a V5 release higher than R16,
  • be in production with V5R16, and
  • submit your request for support of this configuration by 2 June 2007.

Only customers meeting these requirements will receive support for this configuration; there is no additional charge for this support.

Remember that the PLM Technical Support web site always contains the end of support dates for all current PLM products/releases: click on
"Product Life Cycle -> End of support dates" near the bottom of its top page.
