Articulate Storyline has stopped working

Hello,

I have downloaded the trial and am trying to do a few things to get the feel for Storyline.

The problem is that the program never fully loads. I have tried uninstalling, then reinstalling (rebooting after the uninstall and again after the reinstall).

When I try to launch Storyline, I get the message below:

Storyline has stopped working Windows can check online for a solution to the problem.

When i check the problem details I see the following:

I have also tried deleting fonts, but I do use a variety in my work, so I still have a good number installed.

I'm running Windows 7, core i5 processor, with decent ram.

any ideas out there?
