What works

Orcad Capture CIS seems to work OK after applying the 'place part fix'.

What does not

Orcad Layout works but the drawing is very slow (this might be a video driver problem). The pads and line endings are garbled. A bug report has been filed (Bug 23409)

When loading a simulation file, the simulation bar doesn't show. When creating a new simulation project, it doesn't allow to create a new simulation profile (Pspice com wrapper error)

Orcad uses 2 extra processes: cdsNameserver and cdsMsgServer. These work but take 100% of the CPU time.

Additional Comments

IMHO useful after the PSpice COM, CPU usage and garbled drawing problems are fixed.

HowTo / Notes

HOWTO Install OrCAD 16.5

pspice

Capture works fine here. (16.5)
But pspice fails, giving me an installation error at "New Simulation": I can give a Profile name, but it also requires an Inherit from an existing profile. If I put "non", a pop-up tells me about some incomplete installation; and asks me to run some binaries against the regserver: PSpiceExplorerSrvr.exe, pspice.exe, SimSrvr.exe, simmgr.exe and mrksrvr.exe.
I did all, but no change.

Before I file a bug: how can I uninstall and reinstall?
