spring-dedicated.exe crashes directly after start

spring-dedicated.exe crashes without further error message (only the default "..problem.. blah.. had to be closed" (dunno exact english text)) immediately (=in the second) after starting execution.

my system info:
Windows Xp Professional, service pack 2
nvidia gforce 6600 gt
amd athlon 64 2800++, 1,8ghz
1,5 GB ram
i have downloaded the latest version, and behaviour did not change.

if i start it without the dlls, it complains, if i start it without this archivecache file, it complains as well, if it has both, crash without complaint

(the one line in) infolog:
Using read-write data directory: K:\Spring Total Annihilation\
the output in the console window only contains the "big fat warning" with reference where to post errors.

i tried different script.txts resp. springie.txt resp. springie[port].txt
and found no one that works and it does not seem to matter.
i tried "irreal" ones, so where the game described by the script was long gone, but i think that should not matter and i do not want to gather test persons when i am almost sure it wont work.
two examples of these scripts are at the end.

i'm sorry i can give so few diagnosis info .. tell me what i can try else.
