My system is a Windows 7 machine, 64 bit
I previously had Excel 2010 32bit with 32 both Powerpivot installed. However I am currently evaluating 64 bit Excel 2013 with Powerpivot for my company so I uninstalled Excel 2010 and installed an evaluation copy of Excel 2013 64 bit.
However whenever I launch Excel, enable Powerpivot, then click any of the Powerpivot buttons it gives me an error saying "Excel has stopped working".
I took a look in the Windows events logs and found:

I have tried uninstalling and re-installing as well as doing a Repair on my .net framework, which is the latest version.
