Re: Fatal Error
Was your reinstall from the same download copy? Possibly that copy is corrupt and you should download a fresh copy. Befor doing that, try deleteing your User Profile; details are at

An uninstall/reinstall does _not_ change the user profile; on rare occasions the initial profile can be corrrupt. Deleteing it forces OpenOffice to make a new one (hopefuly correct!) on next startup.

Re: Fatal Error
Have you downloaded the installer from the official website? See link bottom right of this page.
This sounds like a major installation problem. Any security application that could prevent AOO from installing correctly?
