Problems Installing PT8 /w original Mbox

[justindbutler]

So I have one of the old school Mbox's and over the weekend had downloaded ProTools 8 as I'm taking the 101 class and need it to complete a final project I have due this week.

So I bought PT8 off the /edu section of digidesigns webstore. I made sure I selected the Pro Tools 8 for original Mbox and saved it to my desktop. I unzipped the file and started the installation process. It first asked me to connect my audio interface, which I did (I read in a sticky that it says not to do this and to continue installing anyways...I don't think I tried that or had the option to continue without it for that matter). But then it asked to insert a CD... which I don't have. Anyone know what's going on?

This is what I'm using:

Motherboard: ASUS--P6X58 Deluxe
CPU: i7 930
GPU: Raedon 5890
Audio Interface: Original Mbox
Operating System: Windows 7 - 64 bit

I google'd this a little bit last night and to my horror saw some thread (not on the DUC forum) about how you can't run ProTools on the windows 7 64 bit platform? Is that true?
