Can you check: is there a window you can't see behind the ones you can 
see? I remember getting this problem - the locked windows on top 
obscured a "child process exited abnormally" window, which stopped me 
from pressing the OK button ...

There is a dependency missing somewhere, but I can't remember which one; 
I simply went back to the installation of all the required libraries and 
started from scratch!
