Things that spring to mind are:

Rename your Calibre Library folder so that Calibre cannot pick up a (possibly corrupt) metadata.db file.
Remove your Calibre settings (uninstall does not). They should be under your User Profile. On my Windows 7 system this is in a Calibre folder located at C:\Users\username\appdata\roaming, but it can be different for other versions of Windows (e.g. under Documents and Settings). Delete (or rename) the whole calibre folder.
Check the search path in case there is some other Python related folders ahead of the C:\Program files\Calibre2 that is the normal Calibre one.
