Does it crash when trying to start? Do you get the PS splash screen? Does the computer just stare at you?

Have you checked Task Manager to see if the process is even trying to launch?

I do get the splash screen and that's it... tried opening from imageready... it ps sometimes open after 4 tries.
i checked task manager and i saw it trying to launch but again disappears

Is it a legit copy? If so, is it activated?

How long has the OS been on the PC we're talking about? Do you perform regular maintenance on this machine? If not, try some simple things first.

Go to www.stevengould.org and download CleanUp! and run it. Then try again.

If that doesn't work, do you have AdWare removal software like SpyBot and/or AdAware? If not, get them and run them.

I don't recall and I'll look at your original post after I type this, but if you haven't tried reloading PS, that'd also be something I'd do.

Ok. Just checked the original and you didn't mention it. I'd try reloading PS. Did it work at one time and now it's just not? Or has it never worked?

yes, it is a legit copy in a 4 month old pc... i perform regular maintainace and it is registered and activated. i also tried transfering and re-activating but did not help...
