Just got a response from ANet, and it turns out that it must be my GPU afterall:
Hello,
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention today. There is actually an issue that ArenaNet is looking into with certain cards not being able to render the game should they have greater than 2GB of memory. While you may be part of that group, we should confirm it first.
Sent them another more detailed file of the crash per their request, but I'm guessing I'm part of that group consider I am running a 4GB GPU...lol
I don't want to say I told you so but.....I told you so :P

This issue isn’t simply caused by 4GB cards, unfortunately. We’ve been investigating it and don’t have a safe fix for it yet, which is why people are still seeing it for BWE2. I’ve been on top of it and rest assured we’ll have a fix for it in the near future, just not this weekend .

whelp, if ya have this issue like I, then we better find something else to do this weekend...doh!
I'm still getting this error even after BWE3. I feel like I've tried everything. I can tell you guys one thing for certain, it has to do with the new launcher.
This is my Error:
*--> Crash <--* Exception: c0000005 Memory at address 00000000 could not be read App: Gw2.exe Pid: 2804 Cmdline: BaseAddr: 00400000 ProgramId: 101 Build: 14460 When: 2012-06-10T18:20:43Z 2012-06-10T14:20:43-04:00 Uptime: 0 days 3:24:43 Flags: 0
If I create a shortcut with the targt "C:Guild Wars 2Gw2.exe" -useoldlauncher it works fine. I was able to play wthout any of these errors popping up.
