Hi Melei,
Let's try some basic troubleshooting. If the problem still persists
please post back and we'll try some more steps. Good luck!
1. To see if it's a software conflict: Temporarily disable Startup
programs one at a time, starting with Firewall, Antivirus, and ad
blockers using this utility:
http://www.mlin.net/StartupCPL.shtml
or this method:
http://www.pacs-portal.co.uk/startup_content.php
In your case, look for programs you have running on this PC that
are not running on your other PC where the program loads fine.
You can lookup what a program does before you disable it here:

2. Run a virus scan at:
http://housecall.antivirus.com and then
install MS AntiSpyware from:
www.microsoft.com/spyware to
remove any Spyware or Adware which could clog up your PC.
3. Click My Computer / Rightclick the Drive & Choose Properties
/ Run the "Disk Cleanup..." / Next Click the "Tools" Tab and run
the "Error-Checking" and "Defragmentation" utilities.
4. Go to the Windows Update site for everything under Critical and
Recommended:

require a patch:
