"Only 2 left in stock--order soon (more on the way)" seems to imply that there's still a market for the game.

I can't understand why installing it on Win7 32 or 64 bit is so effortless for some, yet so painful for others? I can't recall this phenonemon with any other operating system (outside the easily avoided Vista installation problems caused through users not understanding UAC).

As I simply installed it like any other game (no GameShadow, as suggested above), I'm out of ideas.

I agree but I state that purely on what I've read on forums such as here.

Personally speaking I've only ever installed on the 32 bit OS (XP Pro) but my son has it installed on his Vista OS system.
