Help installing Adobe CS4

[frncs27]

Hi i've been trying to download a trial version from adobe website, everytime i click download a window appears and then dissapears right away and nothing happens. I've tried downloading different crack version and the same thing happens when i click the setup.exe.

This may or may not be relevant, however it was posted at the top of their support page

Error "Adobe Setup has stopped working," when attempting to install updates for Adobe CS4 products (Windows Vista)

 

[frncs27]

yea i've tried that also should i just upgrade to 32 bit ultimate will that make a difference?

 

[truthkid]

It shouldn't, ultimate just installs additional features, the OS is essentially unchanged except to enable said features. Did you have Adobe on your system at any point before?
