Hi Tim,

You need Office Beta 2 for PowerPivot CTP.

Here are some of the troubleshooting guidelines in case of other failures,

I know this is a pretty old post, but I just resolved this exact thing for myself yesterday.  I'll post my solution here, for the benefit of others who come after me.  It wasn't necessarily intuitive; took a while to figure it out.
