 I'm using the Tor Browser Bundle, and every time I try to launch it
 through 'Start Tor Browser.exe', Vidalia opens up and says it establishes
 a connection. A few seconds after, it crashes.

 This happens with both the current alpha, and the stable version.

 Regular FireFox opens up fine.

 I can open the tbb-firefox.exe without any issues, it just doesn't do
 anything cause there's no connection.

 Windows' Event Viewer reports this:
