Cannot launch - first time.

Hi, installed OK according to installer. First time launch, I got the tutorial which checked my video card, etc. Reported no problems. Splash screen comes up, nothing else.
Running Windows 7, 16 GB, i7-3770k, NVIDIA GTX 670.

I tried uninstall, which did delete the folders, and also tried updating video driver to 23.21.13.9135, 3/23/18.

After reinstall, same problem. I did not get the tutorial after uninstall and reinstall. Just splash screen and then nothing.

Link to log:

I have never tried this program before. Looks good, I would like to use it.
Thanks
--Todd

Resolve is not certified on W7 so please consider W10. Your GPU is also very underpowered so an upgrade there is likely to be needed too. Please see the config guide

So then, that little checker that checked my system was not correct? It said I was good to go, yet you say I cannot run it on Windows 7. Is it actually checking anything, or is it just a neato little animation?
