I tried getting that 30-day free trial for Adobe CS3 Flash, and it kept telling me "There was a problem trying to set up your free 30-day trial." I even restarted like they suggested to no avail. Now I have to un-install everything, restart, re-download, and try again.

The real chance I get for actually using the system is in April, two months away.

If you mean these...

* Intel® Pentium® 4, Intel Centrino®, Intel Xeon®, or Intel Core™ Duo (or compatible) processor
* Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 2 or Windows Vista™ Home Premium, Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise (certified for 32-bit editions)
* 512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
* 2.5GB of available hard-disk space (additional free space required during installation)
* 1,024x768 monitor resolution with 16-bit video card
* DVD-ROM drive
* QuickTime 7.1.2 software required for multimedia features
* Internet or phone connection required for product activation
* Broadband Internet connection required for Adobe Stock Photos* and other services

Then...

I have an Intel Centrino Duo Processor (1.66 GHz for the first processor, 1.33 GHz for the second.)
I have Microsoft Windows XP SP2
I have about 1.99 GB of RAM.
I have about 139 GB of free space.
I have 1280 x 800 Resolution on a 32-bit Intel 945GM (Express/Accelerated) Video Card
I have a DVD+/-RW Drive Capable of both reading and writing of DVDs as well as reading and writing of CDs.
I have the latest QuickTime from Apple.com
I have DSL, which is always connected (unless the DSL light is blinking green or red, which it usually isn't.)


Therefore, I meet all of their requirements.

yeah, you obviously do. that is odd that it isnt installing. you should try to install CS2 just to see how your comp handles it.

I tried the CS2 trial package that had dreamweaver in it a while back. Not only it did not work, now I can't even install any Adobe products. I can't even update the existing installation of Adobe reader, it thinks there is a copy of the installer still running in the background. And how long it's been like 2 years and 500 reboots and 10 registery clean-up? :S

Can always re-install Windows. I have all of my documents on my 8GB flash drive, so it's easy for me to do all that.

It's a really lengthy process to re-install windows. I usually takes me about a month to get back to the original state that I was in (with the problem solved) before reinstalling windows.
