hi. i'm new to these forums, a graphic designer in desperate need of help - can i get it from here? i upgraded my os into vista. installing all other programs caused no problems, but acrobat will not install! trouble is the installation will not even properly start. i click the start icon, vista asks me to confirm adminstrator rights, i agree, and then: nothing! in task manager i see that acroPro80_efg.exe freezes at 1520 kt. will not budge. ever. i have a new laptop, 2x512 ram, 2ghz.

tried turning off firewall, tried right clicking (...as adminstrator...): no success. i'm using wacom pen tablet. tried turning that off also, just a random thought. i've not had any problems installing any other programs. my system is clean from viruses and running otherwise perfectly.

please help! i need this trial version to function asap: agreed on a dead line next week... i'm panicking!

anyone smart there awake?
