Hi :) I'm not sure why you're Xp one is crashing. Did you use the same installer that you used for the Win7 machine? If not then it might be worth trying that one or just check that the download didn't go wrong. Can you check the md5sum or sha or whatever?
Even a new install will pick up on an old config folder such as your old configs for OpenOffice.org. Sometimes the config folder can be a bit wonky on a fresh release (although it's about a year since someone last mentioned experiencing that) so renaming the user profile can be a good idea even on a fresh new install if things seems a bit wrong. You can find a list of fixes and things from the main wiki-page http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Main_Page but they just tend to be from 1 minor point-release to the next. I couldn't find the release notes. It is very early days for the 3.5.x branch. I guess that goes up to 3.5.6 too right? Btw 32bit apps should be fine on 64bit OSes. 64bit OSes wont install on a 32bit machine so obviously your machine is a 64bit machine.

I tend to get the latest stable versions. Are there any bug reports about the Windows XP issues like my startup crashes? > I run a 32bit OS and programs even tho i have a 64bit processor.

I thought LibreOffice only released 32bit versions? (which > should be fine on a 64bit OS) Regards from I didn't even notice it was a 32-bit LO. I also don't even see a 64-bit one, but if it is worse than 32-bit then I don't want it. BTW, 32-bit v3.5.2 LO on my 64-bit W7 HPE worked fine so far. :) Now, I just need to get it working on my old Windows XP Pro.
