PSpice/other emulation programs

[Brian Oakley]

Hi all,
I studied ET in college about 25 yrs ago now and at the time we used a
very primitive student version of PSpice. Im not up on the latest and
greatest. Could someone recoment a free downloadable version of a circuit
emulator, preferably something that would work with schematic symbols in
constructing the circuit. I tried to dl the free demo of Workbench but it
keeps timing out and I cant seem to get it to finish. Any help is
appreciated. Thanks.
B.
