I'd have a good look at the environment variables you have set.  Are
some of them Emacs related, perhaps?  Any suspicious ones?  Maybe post
the whole list of them here, perhaps someone will spot something.

Also, do you see anything in the Windows' Event Logger, under
Application, around the times when you start Emacs and it immediately
exits?
