Final Cut Express (help) Can't Post

I have left the university for awhile, was concentrating on photography well I am back. I am running a G4 tower 1.2 ghz, 1 gig of ram,ATI 64 meg Vcard, latest tiger,latest Quick Time. I just bought Final Cut Express V3.5. Everything loads without a problem, But where did it go can't find it on my system. Did a search found live type in applications and loop but cant find the Icon to start FC. What am I doing wrong. I meet all the requirements to use the software, and it takes about 30 min to load all the disks. After it says it has successfully installed cant finf it to use it .

Howdy,

Assuming you did a spotlight search for 'final cut express'? Did you do the 'Easy' install or did you click the 'customize' button during the process?

I think they sold me the wrong copy, even though i paid $300.00. When I went to install it Final cut express was grayed out and apple loops, and Live type were Bold and selected. and the button on the box said upgrade. It did not give me any choice to do a custom or easy install thats why I am thinking it is a upgrade copy that got mixed up.
