Okay,

1. I'm running Windows Vista Enterprise
2. Run as administrator (same as 1.6.1 installation which works)
3. Of course I rebooted otherwise the features would be unavailable
4. Running Symantec AntiVirus (same as 1.6.1 installation which works)
5. I downloaded from http://downloads.sourceforge.net/tortoisesvn/TortoiseSVN-1.6.2.16344-win32-svn-1.6.2.msi?download
gpg: Signature made 05/09/09 10:56:23 using DSA key ID 459E2D3E
gpg: Good signature from "Stefan Küng <tortoisesvn_at_gmail.com>"
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 9B38 20F4 1127 4443 F06B D9E0 3532 400D 459E 2D3E
6. installed as myself with Administrator rights (same as 1.6.1 installation which works)

You can say:
1) What version of Vista you're running (there are at least 7, I don't
know if that includes 32-bit and 64-bit for all versions where both
are available)
2) How you installed (logged in as administrator? Run As administrator? other?)
3) Whether you rebooted after installing
4) Any other details of your system (antivirus/firewall programs
especially), including any shell enhancers/other context menu add-ins
5) Where you downloaded from, and if you've considered that it's a
corrupt download and you should try downloading again.
6) What type of user account you're running with
