Exceptions 

Running into a few unhandled exception crashes with the Kinect service. Testing on two different PCs, both running Windows 7, one with a Kinect + drivers, the other without. Neither have the Core service installed.

First, the latest Kinect Beta Configurator crashes on startup with the same exception, but called from different locations in code:

PC 1 (with Kinect + driver) Exception Info: System.TypeInitializationException
Stack:

PC 2 (no Kinect) Exception Info: System.TypeInitializationException

(Edit: After installing MSSpeech_TTS, the below crash went away.)
The other crash was in the release Kinect Configurator, occurs when clicking "Advanced":

Hope that helps!
