I have just installed QGIS 1.8 on Windows 7. Once the install completed and I tried to open QGIS (via the desktop icon) nothing happened. I had this issue when installing QGIS 1.7. I was able to get 1.7 to open by using the qgis.bat file, but it is not in the the bin folder in the QGIS 1.8 version. I began to have this issue after installing OpenGeoSuite 4W. I thought I uninstalled everything I needed. I am worried I may need to re-install Windows. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to get QGIS 1.8 to load and open.
Thanks...
