I don't think the browser is the issue. The file downloads fine, it just won't run.

(I'm using Firefox, but have IE8 installed as it comes with Windows 7)

What is compatibility mode?


I need to resolve this within my return period so I know if I should exchange it for a different netbook.

I think its the basic Windows 7 OS on the HP (I have the same netbook, from Target). Somewhere on YouTube you can find the code to unlock, though temporarily (approximately a month). Works after you do the upgrade. Its not the software, its the OS.
