[Raptorace22]

Alright, so lets talk about the problems we have AFTER downloading.
My mentor and I had the exact same problem; we're both running Vista 64-bit machines. We got the file okay, had Inventor up and running and then one day it just decided not to work.
My computer was having trouble shutting down and when I started it back up it did nothing for about 20 minutes.
I restarted it and when I did a window that I had never seen before popped up telling me that my computer could not start and that it was running through repairs to fix the problem.
After that everything worked fine until I opened Inventor and while loading I got a message that said "This program has stopped working, Windows is searching for a solution."
And that was the end of that.

So far I've repaired, reinstalled, uninstalled, and am now in the process of reinstalling from square one. Anyone have any idea what is going on?!?
