After three calls to tech support, the issue is resolved. The trial
version of Adobe FrameMaker 8 is not supported on Windows 2000. This is
noted in small print in the system requirements - my bad! Although I
was misled by the first two tech support representatives I spoke with -
you certainly can run Frame 8 trial on the same system with Frame 7.
