Sample1.py is not valid as a startup script : a startup script cannot use any function provided by scribus as it is executed during scribus initialization (Note : there is already an open issue which propose to change this, see 0008552).

Startup scripts are designed to be used in order to initialize modules such a PyQt4 in order to enable their later use inside scribus scripts.

To fix the crash, edit %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Scribus\prefs140.xml, search the string "extensionscripts" and reset the value attribute in the line containing it to "0".
