Guild Wars 2

Ever since i updated this past tuesday, i’ve experienced crashes every single time i attempt to play. it isn’t always before getting into the game, though i have had the white box appear saying a critical error has occurred and mentioning something about not able to write to memory. there are times i get past this and, if i allow my character select screen to fully load, it crashes again. to get around this, i have been immediately clicking my chosen character before even seeing his model appear. there are times that i get past this point and while loading into heart of the mists it gives me crash window asking me to close the program or wait for it to respond. there are times i get past even this, and load into heart of the mists and then have either of the aforementioned windows appear and crash my game. there are yet still times i get past that and am able to play for a while, only to have it crash at that point.

allow me to state now that i have literally never, ever crashed before, that i can remember. only crashes that have occurred prior to 09 JUN 2015 were related to other computer issues (such as the video driver crashing). again, that i can remember— which really should say something about what is causing the crashes.

i have repaired my install twice now.
i have restarted my computer multiple times.
i have checked for updates to my computer and hardware.
i have sent the crash reports a few times through the GW2 crash report window.

EDIT: things one may want to know – laptop with: windows 7 pro, dual 580m in SLI, 3 hard drives of which one holds games and is not fragmented and is clean of any issues, 24 gigs ram, i7 970 processor.
