Default Creating paragon = Crash

Hello,

I just recently bought Nightfall and oddly enough when I try to create a paragon my computer freezes up and eventually crashes. I tried reinstalling GW with the Nightfall DVD but it only allowed me to go so far as chose face, hairstyle and then when i changed hair color my computer crashed.
There is no problem with any other classes, female or male. I have yet to try Paragon female but I still want to be able to create paragon males.

When my computer freezes up it does it in intervalls, my music first begins lagging and then begins playing as it should, i can move my mouse again but I still cant really do anything. I can't press ctrl+alt+del, alt+tab or alt+f4, closing guildwars with the X wont work cause I can't click anything.

http://www.komplett.se/k/shoplist.as...A-4B56E2CC272B are my computer specs.

and I have the newest drivers, yes.

I can only think in two things: Corruption on your hard disk and/or GW files, or some kind of incompatibility of your PC with particular texture or something else.

BTW, IMO the best way to reinstall GW is uninstalling/deleting everything and download the client (a very small file) from the official GW website.

Weird... these problems are hard to solve. The myriad of software drivers could be causing the problem.
