Check whether EMACSLOADPATH is set! What values have the GNU Emacs variables load-path and exec-path? Do files exist that shadow the proper ones? The later question can be answered by invoking "Send Bug Report…" from the Help menu. The function behind it checks whether such files exist and reports it towards the end of its output.

You can also check what this "emacs" command you invoke in some shell (or from some menu) actually is.
