Maybe the crash corrupted some INI files.
Look for "pvengine.ini" in the \ini filder and "povray.ini" in the \renderer folder.
Open them in notepad or your favorite text editor. Loof if there is something 
strange in them.
Try clearing the \rerun folder.
If all else fails, try reinstalling POV-Ray. This won't affect any file you 
created, but will reset any distribution file that you may have edited to 
default state.
