AutoCAD 2011 64-bit Install Problem

[Anonymous]

Here's a new one...

I have a new MacBook Pro, running boot camp with Windows 7 64-bit running. Everytime I try to install the student version of AutoCAD 2011, the executable does not initiate, and my computer gets very very very hot.  The task manager reads the cpu as 100% active, but does not list any Autodesk processes.

This only happens withe the AutoCAD installer.  Maya went just fine.

Clues?

Is this happening with the Installer or is it when extracting the files to the hard drive? The executable you downloaded is a WinRAR self-extracting archive. When you double click on it the Install button is really an Extract button. It extracts to the hard drive, C:\Autodesk by default. When the extraction is complete the installer should start.
