I have also extracted the LDCad32.exe file and placed it in the corresponding folder. The result is the same: a black screen after seeing the interface for a split second.
After that I have taken the unusual step of deleting the contents of the installation folder as well as deleting the corresponding folder under %appdata% and then extracting the archive version of LDCad1.6b2 in the now empty folder. Same result, and no new folder under %appdata%.
If 1.5 works 1.6 should too as I don't use any additional OpenGL features or something. I'll go dig a bit more in the (minor) rendering changes I made between 1.5 and 1.6 to see if I can find something that could cause this.
