Downloaded and installed 2.0.2 without trouble on an Athlon 64x2
(dual-core) XP box (Media Center Edition, SP2, patches up to date).
Applications appear in Start menu after installation, but won't actually
start.
Mouse pointer becomes arrow+hourglass briefly, then reverts to normal;
this is the only visible indication of anything happening. No windows
appear, or Tray icons, or any other UI. No error message dialogs appear
either. Eventvwr.msc shows nothing untoward afterward. After waiting
upwards of 1 hour there is still no user-visible UI. (Openoffice Base
and Openoffice Writer were attempted with identical (lack of) results.)
System specs: Athlon 64x2 3800+, 1GB RAM (task manager shows a commit
charge of 800M; yeah I have a bunch of other stuff running and
explorer's been hemmorhaging memory again) and 2.5G swap (3/4 free);
dx9c compat 3d card w/64MB RAM (won't run Q4 decently, but it's more
than any office app should require); gobs of free HD space (>> 100GB);
system clean of spyware and viruses as of midday yesterday; broadband
net connection functioning normally.
Installer presented no error messages or other abnormal behaviors.
Installer was clean when virus-scanned prior to launch, and came from
the official .torrent. Java version, if relevant, 1.5.0_06 and
functioning normally (have an instance of the Eclipse IDE open right now
as a matter of fact).
Also, it did not associate .rtf files with Writer, as one might expect,
though I checked all three file reassociation options in the installer.
Any clues? Known XP or Athlon64 incompatibility? Some obscure regsrv32's
that need doing in lieu of a reboot? (though usually error messages
naming specific OCXs appear in that case, obviating the need to email
support)
(I don't want to hear "it won't work on your computer, period"; I'd
rather not hear "you have to reboot first" since it's such a PITA to do,
losing your place in all open web sites, documents, file browsers, etc.)
