CREO Won't Load

I just finished installing CREO Parametric 3.0 but when I try to open the program it does nothing. The load icon appears for a couple of seconds and then disappears. I have been looking online and maybe I don't have compatible hardware? I'm currently using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Any help would be appreciated.

    Otto,

    It can be due to graphics on machine, try adding graphics win32_gdi in config.pro in <Install location>\M##\\Common Files\text

    How do I open config.pro? Would I need a specific application?

    Is this a commercial version or student version of Creo 3?

    Open up the permissions on the <Install location>\M##\\Common Files\text folder so you have RW rights.

    Do you have the proper license file for Creo 3.0 and the License Manager installed?

    I have a student version of 3.0 and I entered in the license that was given to me by my instructor. I had installed everything successfully without any prompts. I just allowed permissions for all users on the text folder but it still won't start.
