Does it happen on both XP and Windows 7? Cycles works fine for me on Windows 7 here.

I have not tested the last version on Windows 7, but I tested blender-2.71-f37ec65-win32.zip and it occured. (CPU: Intel Core Quad processor)

Sometimes the steps are these:

Open Blender
Select Cycles in Render Engine
With default cube selected, go to Properties Panel >> Material Button and click on "Use nodes"
Blender crashes

Or open an old file like the one attached, and for example, if I change Glossy distribution to Ashikhmin-Shirley it occurs before rendering.
lb_coated_glossy_10.blend

cadf77d does not seem to have the problem. I do not have time to investigate this currently though

Blender-2.71-17f6d83-win32 also fails when Cycles render engine is selected.
