Unhappy Problems with AutoCAD files in 3D max 8

I have tried to import a AUTOCAD 2007 file to 3D max 8 and it shows error: "Unable to open (...) The error code reported is eBadDwgHeader" Is there any one who might have any idea what to do with that, I would appreciate it.
Thanx

Save it as DWG 2004 and then import or file link it

I had that problem today and i have service pack 3 installed, so i dont think that fixes it. I did as above (acad 2004 file) and that solved it.
