Pete, Support is really the place to sort out this persistent type of problem.
But a thought - how are you creating the new file? Are you importing lists from another file or is it really a clean new file that is immediately crashing? If you are importing lists, one of them may be the problem. Your computer date setting shouldn't be a problem. Mine is also set to DD-MM-YYYY - also the Australian standard. I use Custom Events and lots of my own Sentence Definitions, so I don't think that in itself is the issue either. Speedy entry can cause a freeze or crash of Legacy - but I haven't seen the 3021 error for a long time.
