Photoshop CS5 and AE CS5 Crash

Question

Hi all.
I have a problem with PS and AE, both CS5. I bought the Production Suite, uninstalled everything from Adobe, restarted, and installed the production suite. It worked fine for one day, for Photoshop Cs5 Ext. 64bit, I worked on some images, it did everything, it quit without crashing. I opened in the same day every product on Production suite and they all opened without problems. Today, I went on to work in AE and it crashes right after the splash screen, when the interface is starting to show-up without any kind of error, just "Adobe After Effects stopped working... A problem caused the app..." no more info on that. So I tried every other application on the suite, and they all (Premiere CS5, Illustrator CS5, Flash, Soundbooth opened without errors) excluding Photoshop Cs5 64bit (the 32bit is working), if freezes on the splash screen in "initializing menus" (again without any error, just Adobe Photoshop stopped working....").
So I updated my graphic card drivers up to no avail. I deleted "AdobeFnt**.lst" as suggested in http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/840/cpsid_84000.html .
I haven't installed any fonts (nor since Windows 7 Installation nor since photoshop working and the next day)
The only thing I did was update my wacom I4 tablet driver, but then I already tried re-installing the production suite without results. All other applications in the suite work. Even Premiere so I don't think it has to do with the graphic card. Maybe the fonts? But I can't seem to delete them anyway, nor do I know which ones are essential to the system.
My pc is as follows:
Intel Core2 Duo CPU E8400 @ 3.0GHz
4GB Ram
Windows 7 64bit
Ati Radeon HD 4800 Series (with Last drivers from amd site, reseted to Default settings)
I would really be grateful if someone could help me here, thank you

Edit:
Ok, so it was Wacom Intuos 4 last driver that was messing up. I uninstalled, and re-installed the default drivers that came with the wacom table and it started working again. But I think this is a glitch in Adobe's software, b/c only those 2 applications (AE & PS64bit) had the problem, the other ones worked fine, plus PS 32bit. Anyway it's solved.

Ok, so I've managed to put the latest driver of wacom (6.1.5-3)  working with Cs5 64 and AE in Windows 7 64 bits.
I always had  problems with the driver that came with my Wacom tablet, it would not  keep presets, and If i tried to load them I would get a C++ error.
If  I uploaded to the latest wacom driver it wouldn't launch PS CS 64b nor  AE, crashing while starting.
So, the solution was very simple. I  uninstalled the wacom driver (and the plugins for IE and Netscape also  on the uninstal pannel), unplugged the wacom tablet, restarted the pc,  and then installed only the latest driver from wacom (ran as  administrator). It works like a charm. AE and PS start without problems,  there aren't slowdowns and I can keep my preferences for the  tablet/load them.
Hope this helps
