COOL!

That is definitely progress. To ease the job of those that ran into the
same problem, may you try a bit more for us?
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/ORBit2
lists some precompiled ORBit2 packages. What is the most current version
that works for you? Maybe this also helps us to track this bug down :)

WRT loading your account file: Does GnuCash crash? Does it print
something to the command line or /tmp/gnucash.trace (this will be
somewhere in your Local Settings)?
