Windows 8.1 clean install.  Start8 installs but when I click on the start button it takes me to the tiles page.  I have tried re-installing Start8 software version Start8_1.55_setup_sd and the current version 1.56. Any ideas?

Did it prompt you for activation?

Also run the config and make sure it is configured to show the Start8 menu rather than the tiles one.  Also check the control page to check that clicks on the start button are set to open the Start8 menu.
