Resolved - DK2 Crash to desktop before main menu

I'm also having problems with a DK2 and ED. I borrowed it from a friend a few days ago. I'm on the latest SDK and software (Oculus Home says 1.3.1), latest nvidia drivers, (gtx760) Win7. I've got Oculus Home content working and I can play Eurotruck 2 with no problems.
When I set ED to HMD + speakers/headphones and apply settings, ED crashes to desktop.
When I start ED up again, I see the ED logos windowed on my monitor and sound plays. On the Rift, I can see the ED logo and head tracking works. It says "preparing shaders" then crashes back to Oculus Home. I never get to the main menu. I've been tinkering for ages and I'm frustrated now. I feel like I'm missing something. ED works fine in non-vr mode. Any ideas?

Update: 64bit ED worked perfectly. Fixed!

Perhaps you need to "reset" the settings in ED. Try turning off the DK2, launch ED (which should default to the monitor window), save and exit, turn on DK2 again and launch ED again.

If that fails, maybe reinstall ED?

Yeah, I've done a lot of on/offing in various combinations. I'm installing EDx64 now to see if that does anything different.
