Having a similar problem. Difference is that I am trying to run Windows Media Center for the first time. It crashes within 10 seconds, even sooner if I try adding an extender or going through setup. And I'm running a 64-bit Home Premium on a Dell Studio 1535. All Microsoft has recommended (so far) is starting in Safe Mode.

Update your tuner hardware and your graphics card.

is it still happening in safe mode though? Talk to dell about it, or go onto a dell forum, this seems like another dell related problem
