SolidWorks 2009 sp0 installs but crashes at start-up screeen

Anyone got any ideas? I've done the MSXML update, which got rid of the error messages, made sure of my page file settings, using an nvidia FX 1100 card with the latest drivers. But SolidWorks 2009 seems to load OK, but dies when the main screen come up. What am I overlooking?

First time I ran '09, I had to let it sit for a good 7-8 minutes to "re-adjust" itself. Did you do an upgrade or a clean install? Is it killing itself or just hanging?

  It's just crashing out to the desktop after I see the main screen for about 3 seconds. No other messages, or indications show up - just a clean drop out!
  
  I have verified that my FX 1500 card has the correct drivers.
  
  One thought I had was that my drive letter is E, not C. I hoping that SW doesn't try to open a journal file on C, because I don't have one.
  
  Any thoughts?
