I've had the same problem when I try and create or edit .tif files greater than about 400mb. Because gimp keeps undo files etc, the amount of file size gets near 1gb and that causes the same error messages as below.

I am not familiar with Windows, but as I understand it you need to include the gtk packages as well and all I can ask is if you updated that as well. Perhaps remove gimp support packages in their entirity, and then download the current support packages.
