The debugger gives the following list of loaded modules that are not part of Windows: emacs.exe C:\emacs\bin\emacs.exe 23, 1, 0, 0 libXpm.dll C:\emacs\bin\libXpm.dll and both of them seems to me loaded from the right location. It might be very well some sort of image library conflict as disabling the splash image hints it. I suppose making a custom build with debug symbols compiled in and stepping in with a debugger would help. I'll let you know what I find.
