Install 32 bit Canopy on Win 7, 32-bit machine fails

Question

I'm trying to install Canopy (canopy-1.1.0-win-32.msi) on a 32 bit windows machine. The install appears to work fine, but when I launch any of the tools, nothing happens. I can open a command line and run canopy_cli.exe which I found and it claims that I used the wrong installer. I've done it twice. It is a 32-bit Dell Inspiron. I've removed all Python related content from the system to try to get to a clean base.

Ideas?

Thx, --Don

Existing PYTHONHOME and/or PYTHONPATH environment variables may be interfering with Canopy startup. For details, please see: https://support.enthought.com/entries/22508619-Windows-Canopy-shortcut-in-Start-menu-doesn-t-do-anything
