Unsure as to whether this will be of any help to you but I kept having a similiar problem after I reinstalled windows vista on my system,nothing seemed to work until i transferred WoW to my spare external drive,now it works perfectly.

I'm sure someone more technical than myself may have a better solution for but in the meantime this may be a reasonable workaround for you.

In vista, WoW should be installed to the 'Public' folder rather than 'Program Files'
