Problem Get a CTD when running scenario on Earth!! HELP!!!

[stevcast]

I recently upgraded to a new computer (H.P.Pavillion p6130y with 8G.B. of memory and a NVIDIA GeForce 9100 graphics card). I have spent the last few weeks downloading my files, and Orbiter into my new OS (Vista-home edition), and everything was going fine...for a while, then I discovered that the scenarios that envolve planet Earth result in a CTD.
I have been advised by a couple of individuals whom I consider to be very knowledgable to do a complete clean re-install of Orbiter, but...if there is anyway to remedy this situation without having to do a complete reinstall, it sure would be nice (this would be reinstall #4... I think). Here is the Orbiter Log. I am not very knowledgable as far as computers are concerned, so if there is anyone that can make some sense out of this (and hopefully save me from weeks of reinstalling, I would greatly appreciate it!)!!

For all intents and purposes, every scenario in the solar system includes earth.
Default scenarios should run fine. I am assuming you are trying scenarios that came with addons or (more likely) at one point you modified your base.cfg.
Tarmac1.msh is NOT part of Orbiter, yet something is clearly missing it.
This seems like a prime example where the output from Orbiter Diagnostics will help a lot!

P.S.: You can increase performance a lot by selecting a T&L renderer. Try checking always enumerate devices if it does not show up.

Good Morning!
I am not sure, but I think I got a similar problem before. I found out it was related to the San_Francisco_Beta5.zip Airport add-on. Whenever I reach orbiting past Doberai, I got an CTD. After I deactivated San Francisco Airport, all run fine again.
Just an idea!
I hope you get it sorted out.
