I recently bought a new HP notebook computer & want to install Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard, which I use on my desktop computer at work. I use Windows XP Professional at work and Vista business on this new notebook. I'm having a problen installing/opening Acrobat on the notebook. Is this a Vista issue or an HP issue? How can I install Acrobat? Also, I have to open Acrobat Reader before I can read a pdf file. Is this Vista or HP? The Notebook came with PDF Complete. Is this an issue?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 8.0, Windows

Review this Adobe article it should solve this problem.
