The Case of the Missing New Dialog Box*Applies to: AutoCAD R2000, 2000i, 2002, 2004 and 2005*In AutoCAD 2000 there is a bug with the StartUp dialog
box. If you turn off the StartUp dialog box that shows up when
you open AutoCAD 2000 and unclick the checkbox in the lower left
corner you just did one of two things. You have shut off the
StartUp dialog, which is what you wanted to happen. The second
thing that you just did is that you have turned off the Create New
Drawing dialog box. The Create New Drawing dialog box appears
when you start a new drawing. All other commands work it's just
the New command that works from the command line now. You can
tell if this is your problem by trying to open a drawing with the Open
command. If the File Open dialog box appears than it is not a
problem with the FILEDIA system variable not being set to 1.
How to Reset the redisplay the
StartUp dialog box:

Command Line:
Command: options
Select the Systems tab when the Options dialog box appears.
Under the General Options section place a checkmark in the Show
Startup dialog and click the OK button to save the changes.
