thanks for the help. I was finally successful tonight. The key was your number 3. I had been uninstalling and removing the "calibre library" after each failure and before downloading anew. But tonight i also did a search for any file containing calibre in the file name, and uncovered two files that had hidden away from me since the first download on Sunday.

So I got rid of those two files, emptied out my recycle bin (I am on Windows XP) just to be sure, and downloaded calibre yet again. This time it started up with no problem.

So all is well and now i get to explore how to use it. Thanks to taking the time to answer. This looks like a fun and helpful site.
