I posted this question to the Calibre "bugs" site, but they couldn't help me, and suggested I post it here. Hopefully some one can help!

I have done a new install from your website as of 10-3-10. It installs successfully, and asks if I want to launch. Once Calibre opens, within seconds, it freezes, and I get a Windows error message that Calibre has stopped working, and it closes the program. I have tried rebooting, uninstalling, and reinstalling, with the same result everytime. I have checked my C drive for any leftover calibre files, and the search shows none. I am running Windows Vista Home, on a HP Pavillion laptop.

They asked me to run calibre-debug -g, which resulted in the following result:

This is what was displayed after I typed in calibre-debug -g in command
prompt:

Starting up...
Started up in 2.45599985123

Then it opened up Calibre, which promptly froze as before.
