====================================
Your Photo Gallery database may be corrupted.

Maybe the following article will offer some ideas:

(944221) Windows Live Photo Gallery stops
responding or will not start
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/944221/en-us

For Windows Photo Gallery...just change the path to:

%userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows Photo Gallery

After renaming Pictures.pd4 you will have to re-catalog
your pictures. If renaming Pictures.pd4 does not solve the
problem...you can delete the new Pictures.pd4 file and
change the name of the original file back to Pictures.pd4
and the catalog will be restored.
