Cannot create new section in OneNote

Hi,
I am using Windows 8 PC, 64 bit with 4 GB of RAM. I am trying to open One Note notebook and create a new section in my OneNote, I get this error continuously every time. The application freezes and I had to kill it using the task manager. I tried restarting my PC several times but still the same problem. Someone please help. Help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

ONENOTE.EXE – Application Error – The instruction at 0x777708c5 referenced memory at 0xffffffff. The memory could not be read. – Click OK to terminate the program
