ok this worked for me so im hoping it would work for you too.
this is the snake application error.
press Start >>> Control Panel >>> System >>> Advance System Setting
you should see this
under the Advance tap in the Performance box, you should press setting
then your going to see something like this
there should be 3 taps, press on the last one Data Execution prevention
once you see what i see in the (2) picture press on add ( go to your cabal folder and pick "CabalMain" )
and then try opening cabal it should work by now.
