Hey guys!
Not sure what exactly might be the problem.
I have Win 8.1 x64. Every version except 3.0.2 crashes right after its installed. I've made a dmp file with the latest beta and i hope it helps. Gonna use 3.0.2 till then.

Re: Rainmeter crash / Win 8.1 x64
No idea. About a million people run Rainmeter on Win8.1 x64 with no issue.
You should try installing it, then in C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Roaming\Rainmeter, find the file Rainmeter.ini and edit it. Change all instances of Active=1 (or any other number other than 0) to Active=0.
That way no skins will be loaded. Start Rainmeter. Does it run ok? Do you get the Rainmeter icon in the system tray? If so, start loading the illustro skins that come with Rainmeter. Do any or all of them load ok? If so, then you need to keep trying until you find which of your skins is crashing Rainmeter.
