UAC, User Account Control, a security system in Vista that has been known to cause trouble with various applications, FS included. You could try turning it off and see if the crashes remain.

Also, do you experience similar crashes in vanilla 2142?

edit: ah, good that things worked out. have fun with the game yeah Yavin can cause problems for Vista users. I assume you know about the fixes available? If not check the stickied thread in this forum.

I see you're running Vista. Do you have UAC turned off? And are you running the Launcher as an administrator?
