Need help installing Acrobat X, Standard on my Vista OS laptop

Vista?!  Yeah I know, but that's what I have on both my (nearly dead) HP desktop and my HP laptop. It was previously installed on the desktop without any difficulty.  Now I'm trying to install Acrobat X on the laptop and am getting the message that it cannot be installed on this operating system (both are Vista-64). Any ideas?

your os is ok is your have sp2 and if you meet the other specs:
1.3GHz or faster processor
Microsoft Windows XP Home, Professional, or Tablet PC Edition with Service Pack 3 (32 bit) or Service Pack 2 (64 bit); Windows Server 2003 (32 bit and 64 bit; Service Pack 2 required for 64 bit); Windows Server 2008 or 2008 R2 (32 bit and 64 bit); Windows Vista® Home Basic, Home Premium, Business, Ultimate, or Enterprise with Service Pack 2 (32 bit and 64 bit); Windows 7 Starter, Home Premium, Professional, Ultimate, or Enterprise (32 bit and 64 bit)
512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
1.9GB of available hard-disk space
1024x576 screen resolution
DVD-ROM drive
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 or 8; Firefox 3.5 or 3.6
Video hardware acceleration (optional)
if you meet the specs, run the cleaner:  http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html
then try and install.

  • Need help installing acrobat on Mac

    I just bought Acrobat Pro.
    When I tried to download it to install on my Mac, it stopped at 42% and it won't let me resume... Any ideas?

    need a little more detail:
    System Used
    whether downloaded copy (meaning purchased direct from Adobe and then used download feature), or bought a pacakaged copy.
    How much Hard drive space left on computer.
    how much needed for install.
    Did you repair permissions on computer, before starting.

  • Need help installing my graphics driver in windows vista via boot camp

    New to mac so first time on forum as well.
    Love the Mac but i also want to get on some old games. C&C The First Decade mainly.
    I am currently using below.
    Mac mini Mid 2011 processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core it
    Memory 4 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3
    Graphics AMD Radeon HD 6630M 256 MB
    Software Mac OS X Lion 10.7.5
    Installing windows vista home premium 32 bit
    I have installed windows vista home premium using boot camp assistant and downloaded the windows drivers as well. After i have installed windows i installed boot camp using my Mac OS X snow leopard which installed boot camp 3 or 3.1 i believe and i eventually got apple updates for 3.2 which is what i am now runnning on vista. I had trouble getting my sound to play through my speakers at first but eventually got them working and now it is my graphics driver that i cannot seem to get working. In vista(I also downloaded service pack 1 and 2) when i go to control panel and check out my device control it shows a yellow exclamation point next to the adapter. I guess i need help in getting my graphics installed correctly on my windows. Is there something i should take off to install the correct driver? Or do i just need the correct driver download? If i have the correct driver how do i upload it onto my windows side in the device control.
    When i try to run c&c generals/zero hour i get a directx 8.1 error, red alert 2 is black but i can hear. i know these games can work i installed the graphics correctly the first time when i did not have sound as this is my second time installing windows so the game did load when i did not have sound.
    Advise?
    I was thinking about saying forget this i can't waste hours of my time anymore but i have to be close to getting everything working if i had graphics before and no sound but sound this time and no graphics. I was also thinking about just buying windows 7 home premium sp1 64bit system builder dvd off amazon and reinstalling windows using windows 7 but i want to make sure i can play these games before i spend the money. I thought my mini couldn't support windows vista and if it did only boot camp 4? how am i getting this far to get things to work?
    What is the driver i need to install to get these games working? What do I need to do or what am I missing???
    Do i need to install a different boot camp off apple and find a driver that will get mine to work in vista?
    Any and all responses will be greatly appreciated i have been at this everyday for hours.

    Also is there something, say maybe a driver, that was installed i do not need that is blocking me from installing the correct drivers? What driver in my boot camp folder do i need to install to get to the correct display to run those games.

  • Need Help installing Portal 9.2 on Windows VISTA Home Premium(OS) ?

    i just need to know whether Portal workshop 9.2 works on the
    Vista operating system. if it does, could u reply me by saying what kind of changes is to be done in order to work.
    I tried creating a sample EAR n WebProject, and tried to start the server , but it doesn't start. And if it starts, then it throws me an error saying cannot deploy Ear.
    It takes for ever to start the server too.

    Hi
    it does work (for the fairly simple application i made).
    Though when starting up the server i normally have to right click the .cmd and say run as administrator.
    The anti virus/firewall also keep popping up warning messages and you have to allow all of them.

  • I need to re-install Acrobat 9 Standard, when I click on download in my account,it days I have no downloads.

    I need to re-install Acrobat 9 Standard, when I click on download in my account,it days I have no downloads.
    I have done this in the past to re-install this software and it worked fine.
    Any suggestion?

    Std is available at Adobe Acrobat X (10) Pro, Reader, and Suite Direct Download Links | ProDesignTools the last time I checked. This time make a backup of your download on a CD or backup HD. Do not depend on the program always being available for download. This is the case for any software you purchase online.

  • Installed Acrobat XI Standard on windows 8.1, see it in my download folder but it will not run?  Help?

    Installed Acrobat XI Standard on windows 8.1, see it in my download folder but it will not run?  Help?

    Also, once you successfully install, please backup the install file to a separate HD and/or CD. I agree that your comment is not clear. You say you installed it, but it is simply in the download folder. Did you run the install file that you downloaded? The download does not install the program, but the install is an extra step.

  • I need help installing flash on windows 8

    I need help installing flash on windows 8

    Chris… No I was using the desktop version, I cannot stand the M version, guess it would be nice if I had  a touch screen..…when I finally got my computer to download the Acrobat Standard XI program, not sure how it worked, but I think it had something to do with Windows 8 not allowing itself to update all my apps and programs, even though my computer was set to automatically update any Windows/Microsoft updates…finally I got my Windows updates done, it downloaded like 36 files…and then I had to restart,(which also could have been playing a factor)…so finally got the program downloaded on Windows 8…but then I tried to run the new program and it says install serial #...so I assume that it was asking for the serial # for the Acrobat Standard XI…finally after googling the web, I found somebody that said try your older serial # from the previous program, and when I did this it finally works.. you would think with a brand new Windows computer I would have no problem installing Windows Updates…somebody needs to make a sticky about this, I am sure I am not the only one haiving this problem..
    Thanks,
