Need help with setting up or other technical issues?

Hi!
I want to be able to plug Massive (regular, trial version) into Ableton Live, (regular, trail version), but I've had no luck. How can I make this work? Is this even possible when using the trial versions of these products?
So far I've tried going into the Plugin section of Ableton, via the plugin icon on the left side of the screen, but I've only messed things up for myself. Now when I click on that plugin icon, all that appears is a label that says 'Plugin devices', where underneath it is nothing, and I can't get it back to how it was! How can I get the plugin feature back to it's default state and then successfully plug Massive into Ableton?
I use Windows Vista Home edition.
Thanks for reading.
