pspp-users is a better place. I guess there are more MSWindows users
and most likely also Vista users who can tell their experience.

Describing it here would make things much easier.

Anyway, did you take care that the old PSPP version are completely
removed before installing the 0.7.9 version? Not only uninstalling,
but check if the directories are removed, if not remove them before
installing.

Can you run you .sps file with PSPP.exe version 0.7.9 and report your
findings? 0.7.2 and 0.7.8 are outdated there won't be any update on
it.

If you use PSPPIRE, start it from a console with ' "c:\program
files\pspp\bin\psppire.exe" > pspplog.txt ' After it is crashed look
in pspplog.txt if there is a message what the problem is.

Have fun
