LANDesk Management Console 9.6 crashing upon first lauch.

Hello,

I have installed LANDesk 9.6 trial version (45 days). I have also installed SQL and created a database that I can successfully login to. The problem comes when I click the LANDesk Management Console icon to launch it. After I click the icon, I get an error message that simply states that the suite has stopped working. My only choices are the usual "check online for a solution" variety, lol. It does give a few problem signatures, though. I have googled them, but cannot make sense of the data that I find. Any help would be appreciated.
