Do you have a clean install of the newest version?

Ayup. But I'm reinstalling now in a fresh folder to make sure.

Yeah I think that this happened, when people just copied the new version over the old version.
I have a clean install, restarted like 15 times so far [because I always mess up something    :D], and never had a crash.

I had it crash twice in a row by attempting to save within the first few ticks after embarking. I wanted to have a backup with all of my customized items and dwarves, problem seems to go away if I wait a minute or two before saving.

You didn't by chance have something like (meat) with zero value in your starting equipment did you? I can't remember what causes this but I know it can crash you upon embarking.
