This Apple article will help you isolate the problem a little -> iTunes for Windows Vista or Windows 7: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
Does iTunes start in Safe Mode?
Open iTunes in Safe Mode to isolate any interfence with plug-ins or scrpits not manufactured by Apple.
Hold down the Shift and Control keys while opening iTunes. If performed correctly, you should see a dialog that says "iTunes is running in safe mode" before iTunes finishes starting up.
After clicking Continue, determine whether the issue you were experiencing persists in Safe Mode.
It would also be helpful if you can provide the Error Report from the Windows Action Center Reliabilty History. To view this go to Control Panel > All Control Panel Items > Action Center > View Reliability History under Maintenance. Double click the iTunes critical event and copy it into your reply.
If you run into problems, see b noirs walkthrough in this thread -> Windows Apple Mobile Device -
iTunes keeps shutting down when I open it up. The message says iTunes has stopped working. A problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solutions is found.
For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.
If you've already tried something like the above then try opening iTunes in safe mode (press and hold down CTRL+SHIFT as you start iTunes) then going to Edit > Preferences > Store and turning off Show iTunes in the Cloud Purchases. You may find that iTunes opens normally now.

Itunes won't open-error-says Itunes has stopped working
I can't open Itunes--it keeps saying it has stopped working and it tries to find a solution. Then it shuts down and nothing happens. I have uninstalled and redownloaded it but same problem.
Restart your computer.
Disconnect your computer from the internet and see if you can open iTunes without crash.
if iTunes does open, go to iTunes Menu Edit > Preferences, "Advanced" tab and click the "Reset Cache" button, OK.
Now, use Windows Explorer to delete the contents of Music\iTunes\iTunes Media\Download
You may now re-connect your internet then see if you can open iTunes without issues. -

Hey Cassblue21,
Thanks for the question, and great troubleshooting so far. While you may have already attempted most of the steps outlined in this article, I wished to provide it to you just in case you missed something. The article includes great isolation steps to determine if the issue is user-specific, or system-wide. Once you have isolated the issue, a few solutions are offered:

ITunes crashing saying "iTunes has stopped working while running iTunes Match
My iTunes is crashing while running iTunes Match saying iTunes has stopped working - I think it may be because at the 25000 song limit but I get no message or warning - just crashes. Would like to keep songs in library while deleted from cloud - can you do that?
Hi,
Yes but you need to create a new blank library.
Hold down option key whilst opening iTunes. Chose new library from pop up. This library will be blank. Turn on match and select add this computer. Once process has been completed you will see all the tracks that you have in the cloud.
Make sure that you add iCloud status to song view as this tells you what has been matched, uploaded or purchased. You can then delete matched and uploaded tracks. You will get message that you are deleting tracks from the cloud. Don't worry about purchased tracks as they don't count towards limit.
Close iTunes and reopen the original library - again hold option key and select choose library. With iCloud status column added to song view, you will now see that tracks that you deleted from the cloud will have an iCloud status of "Removed". They are still on your hard drive and will be ignored during the match scan.

Taken at face value, you're having trouble with an Apple Application Support program file there. (Apple Application Support is where single copies of program files used by multiple different Apple programs are kept.)
Let's try something relatively simple first. Restart the PC. Now head into your Uninstall a program control panel, select "Apple Application Support" and then click "Repair".
If no joy after that, try the more rigorous uninstall/reinstall procedure from the following post:

I just got some new songs, and want to put them on my iPod. I connected it to my laptop, and iTunes opened and automatically started to sync my songs. It only synced the first 8, then displayed an error message saying "iTunes has stopped working." The only option was to close the program, so I did. I then tried at least ten more times, with the same results. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, but nothing is working. Please help!

I cannot get into my iTunes. When I try to load it, I get a message that says iTunes has stopped working. What do I do?i Have uninstalled and reinstalled both iTunes and Quicktime already, Did not make a change
You are on pc or mac? I think pc. Below is a link that gives the steps, and it suggests you need to down load a controller, and then it tells you how to set it up. See if this helps any.

a further message box states that Data Execution Prevention has closed the program.
Try updating your QuickTime to the most recent version. Does that clear up the DEP errors in iTunes? -
