WotLK WOTLK Warmane client not starting

[FBITacoTruck]

Trying to start up the wotlk client via my desktop shortcut and the wow.exe will not get me to the game, it creates a process for WoW but the window does not appear.
Any tips or tricks before I give up and redownload it?

The game will come on EVENTUALLY but how long eventually lasts is a complete unknown. Rather it just work when I click on it, ya know?

Looks like someone needs to reinstall windows. Or buy an SSD and put the game on it.
