I had the same thing happen and it tuned out to be a plugin. It Started up fine empty though. I edited one of the files to turn off the offending plug and it atarted fine after that too.
From: Sue Morton on 23 Apr 2008 10:24 Empty, no template no last song. Rebooted and now the new version of Reaper loads fine... until the next time. That's been a consistent experience so far, a reboot 'cures' the problem for a time, making it almost impossible for me to recreate it. -- Sue Morton Steve L. wrote: > "Sue Morton" <867-5309(a)domain.invalid> thought it was ok to ask > >> Well so much for the newest version of Reaper.

I don't even plug it into the port unless I plan to use it. It runs fine from there.
