Two months ago, I had purchased and installed the latest version of VF to my old machine, which ran XP Pro SP3 until its demise. My replacement is running Win 7 Ent 64-bit. In attempting to use the install package I downloaded from Intel (again, purchased on academic license through Programmer's Paradise), the installer appears to hang on the search for a license (which I have). Is there an easy workaround for this? Will I need to contact PP? Any advice is welcome...

Did you read the notice at the top of the forum about downloading one of the 2 most recent versions in order to install on Win7?
The correction of Win7 installation bug occurred with 11.1.048. Discussion of that is still present at the top of the C++ forum (not amended to point out that the latest version should work too); it seems to have fallen off the Fortran forum.
By the way, the Win7 installation bug should have showed up only on Penryn family CPUs. No, not a fault in any of the CPU steppings, just a complicated recognition problem between Win7 and software installer, should be fixed in those recent updates.

Actually, I "un-stuck" that post... 11.1.048 (or the new 051) is required to solve the problem you encountered.
