There is no problem, you just need to wait for it, it can take up to 10 mins to start on slow comps.

Ok, ill try. Its wierd, because I got XP on the same computer just on another drive, but then XSI runs perfect.
EDIT: Even if I wait in 15 minutes it wont start.

It's always a good idea to check the XSI wiki:
