constant crash / freeze

[plaztekk]

Every time I try to load the "game" (character creator demo), when it is showing "compiling shaders" message, it "freezes" (shader count just stops counting up), and one of two things happens:

1) Client won't do anything; unresponsive. I CAN force quit the client.

2) Client won't do anything; unresponsive. I CANNOT force quit the client. Computer is completely frozen. I have to hard restart my computer.

Meanwhile, whichever one of those above happens, a separate "out of memory" message popup is shown.
