Installation of photoshop elements

So, I just bought this package and installed it.  But during the install, the window that let me select a path and such didnt display correctly, almost like it was a HTML window but the CSS wasnt working.  But I hit enter, and it installed.

But, now that its installed, on to the next question.  I start the program and get the "What do you want to do?" screen.  So I click "Photo Editor", which is the only reason I bought the program.  And a new window pops up asking me to log into to adobe for some reason, but it has the same issue the install window had.  It looks like all the CSS is missing and nothing in the window is clickable.  so, Im stuck with a $99 paperweight.

Here's what it looks like (and yeah, nothing is clickable):

Honestly, I'd like to uninstall and re-install because i want to put it on a second drive.  But Id like to figure out what the heck is wrong before spinning my wheels.
