Please advise what the problem might be.

It can happen that an installation of OpenOffice "out-of-the-box"  produces a 
corrupt user profile, which can cause instability.  The cure for this is to delete or 
rename the old user profile; OO will then generate a new profile on next startup.

Details of the User Profile for various operating systems
are given in

If you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer
Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a
good choice. Start OpenOffice.

If that does not improve stability, start Windows in Safe Mode.  If OO runs 
stable in Windows safe mode the culprit is some program or driver that runs in 
Windows normal mode, which program or driver is interfering with OpenOffice. 
Common culprits are Skype, Anti virus, continuous backup programs ad utilities 
which monitor the Clipboard.  To locate the culprit needs systematic detective 
work on the affected computer.
