Then I would suggest you contact TI tech support ASAP before your trial
expires.

No, I meant the target CPU. I have never used the trial edition of
CCS, may be it comes with compilers for all TI DSP families.
The normal version supports only the DSP you purchase it for (C2000 /
F2812 in my case)

Thanks for the information. However, I am using a trial edition.

I did (a) and (c). What did you mean "a CPU supported by your CCS
version"? 
The CPU on my PC? It is AMD Athlon 900MHz.

Yes, I can see that cc_app.exe is running.

Where is the service pack please?

Have you installed all the service packs, etc. from the TI website? If
not, do so. When you have done that, if it still doesn't work, try
bringing up task manager (Ctrl-Alt-Del, then Alt-T), and watch to see
if any processes starting with "cc" are running or start and then
abruptly end.

I am running CCS 3.1.19 under Win2k/SP4. Never had problems installing
it. (had to do it a few times) Check the following: (guessing only)
(a) Check you have administrative privileges both for installing and
running CCS. (You should not need to be an administrator to run it,
but just in case)
(b) Make sure that you are choosing a CPU supported by your CCS
version
(c) Add more than one board/simulator - This should force CCS to bring
up a selection window before launching the full blown IDE. It is
possible you may see some helpful information in that window.
