Outlook 2007 trial with Vista

[Red Hen]

Can anyone tell me how I can get the Outlook trial to work on a Vista
platform. I've read the posts here and can say that I don't have Outlook 2003
loaded, nor do I have Acrobat Pro. The program just won't load and just hangs
/ freezes in the background. Any help greatly appreciatated....

Any error messages? Are you logged into Vista as an admin, if not, are you
using Run as... for Setup?

Thanks for responding, Diane.

There are no error messages. The program appears to open and even creates an
icon in the status bar; it then beeps, creates an inbox icon in the bottom
right of the status bar to tell me "You have new unopened items" - but that's
it. When you mouseover the inbox icon, the popup states "Inbox - Microsoft
Outlook Trial" and no more.

I am the admin user (only user, actually) for the laptop.

Hope you can help!

what happens if you double click on the icon? if you r-click on it, is
minimize to tray enabled?
