CS5 would not start

[Eunice Hwang]

I installed CS5 into my drive but when it's initializing, the window that says the program has stopped working pops up and forces me to close it down. Anybody know what I can do? Thanks.

Have you tried again?
Windows or Mac?

It is most likely not related to hardware issues because if it were then you would not have been able to even install it in the first place. (if talking CS5+) The problem is most likely related to leftovers from a previous installation. Like if you had a trial that had expired and now trying to solve the problem by just installing a new one.

Try using the adobe cleaner, it might just solve it for you.
