Trial of Photoshop CS5.1 doesn't work

Question

I downloaded CS5.1 Trial off Adobe site (I have CS4)
I installed it (Windows 7,  12Gb ram,   4.3Tb hard disks).....
When I try to run CS5 I don't get past the License Agreement (I 'Accept' it and it keeps asking me to 'Accept' - it's like its in some sort of loop).
What's the problem ??
Thanks,
Jez

Hi Everyone,
This thread has seemed to degenerated, and if you want my perspective on it, Noel, you've played your role in that and in quite an unprofessional manner (please stop using the word 'assume' in your replies - as a troubleshooter, don't assume anything either personally about me or what I may or may not have done, or have, or otherwise).....
The thread seems to have been hijacked by Commando?   (sorry, there is an inefficiency in the reply system of this forum, I only get to see the last post of the thread so have to rely on memory......).
Noel, I don't really know who you're talking to regarding a poorly built system and it not working (I don't remember reading Commando saying that his system couldn't handle CS5, but I do remember him saying he'd paid $150 for it, so to me, it must be a counterfeit copy at that price).
I myself, as a Computer Graphics person, love using my software, and since day dot, have always used legal and paid for versions.  (I use other 3D software which are far far more expensive than even the Adobe Master Collection and even in those instances I refuse to use cracked software - my take on it, is that I enjoy using it, so the pleasure I derive needs to be paid for in full and why not ?).  Always have done, and currently while I can't actually afford to go to CS5, that doesn't stop me trying to enjoy for 30 days the new features in a trial version.
I was wanting to download and try the new Content Aware Fill (is that what it's called) in Photoshop CS5.  What I'd seen in demos and on YouTube blew me away.
I don't believe that the file I have downloaded has been corrupted. To dispell any confusion, I downloaded it from Adobe's own site using their download manager.  Don't downloads use Checksums to ensure that the file is complete as its supposed to be ??   And if it were corrupted I don't think the install would have even worked, I don't think I'd have an installed version of the Software on my system disk.
I believe, if ANYTHING, the problem lay in the fact that I didn't disable my virus software before installation.  But that to me is a bit meek of Adobe to expect the USER to know to do beforehand (yes, it does say that in the Installation notes but it should have said it in the install dialog box).
I haven't uninstalled the software yet so maybe I'll give it another look later on......hopefully in time before the Trial runs out.
Kind regards,
Jez
P.S.  Noel, I hate to say this, but I'm not confident that you'd be able to fix my problem - my 'call' to uninstall seemed quite convenient for you !
