Try bypassing the Welcome screen by running PRE directly. In the Programs folder you will find two programs:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 10\Adobe Premiere Elements 10.exe
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 10\Adobe Premiere Elements.exe
Double-click the second of these (it will have the largest size) and see if that opens the editing workspace for you.

Insanity is hereditary, you get it from your children
The program works fine on Windows 7 64-bit. I've been running it on mine fine for works.
Have you manually gone to Windows Update and downloaded even the non-critical updates (the ones that don't download automatically)?
Have you run Disk Cleanup and Defragment?
Have you reset your licensing, per the FAQs to the right of this forum?

Have you ensured you have the latest 64-bit version of Quicktime?

EVERYTHING is running as expected on my computers, but Adobe Premiere Elements 11
What is wrong with this product? And why does it stop loading at "LoadingQuickTime.prm"? On every of my computers?
Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 is running 100% - so far - on every computer....
I did my purchase of Elements + Premiere 11 on date of release and downloaded software. My first problem, and reason to contact Adobe Support was because their automated system didn't create a specific serial number for Premiere part of the package. Later I got my serial number, so at first I had to start with my "Trial Version". I did my purchase on 26. september 2012 and 30 days of Trial was about to start......
Today I am still trying to find out what is the problem, and I am looking....and staring.....at my computer screens......
And I still have that 30-day Trial Version active?!!!
Here is a picture of my startup screen...in the moment of crash & burn

PrE uses QT Player, where PSE does not. The hanging at the QT PRM concerns a module in QT Player, and indicates that it is not loading properly.
Also, the OP had a Lenovo, and was having trouble getting the latest video driver to install. I did not see your make/model of graphics card/chip, or the driver version and date, but might have missed that. Have you checked with the mfgr's. Web site, and then downloaded and installed the very latest driver?
Good luck,

Is that 12, 2010 really the latest AMD/ATI driver for the Radeon?
AMD/ATI & nVidia, normally issue updates about one per month, but then with some really old cards, might essentially drop support.
Even though my nVidia Quadro FX-4500 is now 5 years old, the drivers come out about every other month, and the latest is 11/19/2012.
Now, HP often re-packages the video drivers, whether from AMD or nVidia, so one is often limited to ONLY the HP version of a driver, but they are usually pretty good getting those re-packaged drivers out quickly.
Good luck,

This is what i found about my HP ProBook 6555b:
| ATI Video Driver and Control Panel | 8.722.1-100408A-098374C ![]() 25 May 2010 | 121.3 | 56K: 4h 512K: 32m |
Wow, those drivers are not being updated at all. Looks like they are both stuck in 2010, so about 20 mos. have gone by, without an update.
I do not know what to suggest in that case.
Both AMD and nVidia normally issues updates almost every month, until a card is dropped from their active list. Then, one is stuck with the older drivers, and if they cause issues, the only recourse is to replace with a newer card.
Good luck, and wish that I had more to offer.

Try installing Standard VGA drivers and try to launch the application :
if you are able to launch application that means problem is with display card driver
I have exectly the same problem. PE 11 won't launch.3 The startup screen stays on the 'loading importerquicktime.prm' stage.
I've tried a lot of things (installing the last graphic drivers, launching PE directly via 'run as Administrator' - the only way to have the startup screen, etc...)
I'm a bit disapointed.
I'm under Win8 64bits with 16Gb RAM. My Graphix Card is a GeForce GTX 560
Status update:
My Display Drivers are updated after contact with Acer Support, and version is now
8.901.4.0 dated 13th October 2011, but problem still remains.....
Finally, I got a solution named CyberLink PowerDirector 11 (64-bit)
and made my movie without Premiere Elements 11...at last.
Test-project produced with Nikon D7000,
Sigma 50-500mm F4.5-6.3 APO OS HSM @ 400mm and
Zoom H1 with Røde Dead Cat.

Maybe I should by a new computer for Christmas...?
I just did some experiemnts with Instant Movie.
For your Title, in Expert Mode, you would first Select your Instant Movie Clip (everything appears as one big Clip now). Rt-click on it, and choose Break Apart. That will change that one big Clip into all of the various elements, used by Instant Movie. There will likely be several Video Tracks, with Clips on them. You might have to scroll up/down to find the Titles. Just hover your Cursor over the various Clips near the beginning of the Timeline, until you find the Title. Dbl-click on that, to open it in PrE's Titler. There, you will be able to Select the Objects in that Title, like the main Text Object. You can Select that with either the Selection Tool (the "arrow"), or with the Text Tool (the "T"). Once you have the desired Text Object (if there is more than one), you will see the Font selection drop-down, under the Text Tab in the panel to the right in Titler. What font is shown? If you change that font, does your Title now display properly? As you will likely have two Titles, one with the Instant Movie's chosen name, and one for the end-credits. I would explore both, as they probably used the same font, when created.
Good luck, and hope that helps,
Hunt
