blender 2.55 crashes on open

so running windows xp, 32 bit, and blender 2.55 and it won’t open. This is the message that pops on in the output window:

found bundled python: C:/PROGRA~1/BLENDE~2/BLENDE~2/Blender/2.55/python

I’v tried uninstalling, changing the install location, and changing the installed folder name. Anything else I should try?

thank you.

got it working, it was a file placement issue. The file had to be placed in the “program files” folder.
