    Do you have SQL Express installed? (W2008 STD screen complains about it)

    You get the MMC pluggin error if trying to run on WinXP.
    VAMT3 is only compatible with Vista and above, unlike VAMT2 which would work on XP.

    I haven't looked at the SQL error yet.

    Update: Finally I have managed to install VAMT 3 in Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit but unfortunately Windows 8 RTM or Windows Server 2012 RTM MAK Keys are not supported. Any clue about this?
