Android Studio Not Loading [duplicate]

Question

After Google Announced Android Studio based on IntelliJ I wanted to give it a try but I'm having an issue. It installed fine, and during the install successfully found the JDK but when I try to launch it nothing happens. No error, no splash screen no nothing.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Thanks for any help you can provide.

You have to add a new system variable named ANDROID_STUDIO_JDK or JDK_HOME with the path to your JDK install folder, such as C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21\
