And I tried to launch "\PortableApps\OpenOfficePortable\App\openoffice\program\soffice.exe" also.

OO 3.0 failed running in Vista Ultimate SP1 32bit

I had PortableApps installed in Documents folder in my profile under Vista Ultimate SP1 and OO 3.0 failed everytime passing the splash screen.

Solution:

I created a new folder on root, C: drive, and moved every single thing that related to PortableApps to the newly created folder, C:\PortableAppsProgram. OO app worked just fine afterward!

I hope this help!
