Ok I got tired of the installer and launcher not working on a clean comp, so I copied the programsfiles(x86)/CCP folder as well as the Users/[username]/appdata/local/CCP folder and placed them in their approipriate place in the new comp.

The launcher loads perfectly, but when I press play I get the splash screen then noithing happens. I do have a exefile.exe appearing in task manager. Other than that nothing.

Is there anyone that has installed eve this way?

This was the alternate method CCP prescribed if all else failed so a CCP response would be appreciated, or obviously anyone that knows.

Go to http://download.microsoft.com/ and grab the latest Directx web setup While you're at it, also ensure all drivers are up to date.
