Removed 2.0 and reinstalled 1.48 and it runs fine. I always install the latest release and have not had any problem upgrading until 2.0 was released.

My guess is that there is a bug of some sort in the just released 2.0 that is causing it to crash.

Is this a known problem and will there be an update anytime soon for this? I noted that others have had the same problem in the last day or so.

FYI - I run XP with all updates and service packs installed and have had NO problems until installing Calibre 2.0.
Not sure if this is related to your problem but when I started playing with the Calibre 2.0 betas, I had a couple of odd issues. Basically, I ended up taking notes about all the plugins I had installed, settings, etc. and then uninstalling Calibre and deleting all the Calibre directories (program and user data) except the library directory. Installed Calibre and the problems seem to have disappeared.

David
