Shortk3,

 

Did you get a "Installation was Successful" screen when the application was done installing? Or did everything go away when the installation was complete?

 

It sound like the installation may have failed and it backed out completely. Can you provide the installation log file located in the temp directory?

Are you sure you didn't just download the files but haven't installed it yet?

Agreed.  Check to see if your card is on the approved tested list and that you have a certified driver.

Your video card.  Check in Device Manager for the type and the driver version.  Ask your IT for assistance if necessary.
