Hello guys,
Engineering stimulus package is very good idea...only if it work!!!
I used to have a student version which is just expired. I un-installed everything, clean the registry manually from all SW related stuff.
When I run the installed, Enter the Serial number, click next, nothing happen. It just stays there in the welcome step!
Any stimulating ideas will be very appreciated

Seems to me that there is no way to fix this. So, I had to install a brand new vista on an old HDD i happen to have and installed the ESP on it. 32bit worked with no issue but 64bit crashed on startup when installed on vista 64bit.
Another approach i tried is to extract the files on the fresh OS and install them on the old one. This failed to work for me - but it might work for others with same problem.
I guess I can live with swapping HDs for 90 days!
Thanks
