AU3 crashing as it opens

Question

I have Audition 1.5 and have just purchased the upgrade to 3.0 but when I install it and try to open v3.o I get the splash screen and then a screen telling me I have to close Audition to save my work and then an error message that is always slightly different but runs like this:
e84:audition.exe error
The instruction at 0x07a010e3 referenced memory at 0x00000018 the memory could not be read
v1.5 still opens and works a treat but v3.0 seems to be a no-go area - can anyone give me any clues as to what may be wrong? I have tried uninstall, etc.
Thanks in advance
Nick

Do you have a spare harddisk! if so: use it for a fresh windows xp install
and try installing audition on that, the default recommendation is to have
multiple physical disks anyway and it would be nice to be able to narrow the
field of possibilities somewhat.
