I had the same problem but i have found a solution to this working for me and i have decided to make a account on this site and share with you guys
1. Locate your GW2.exe file. 2. Right-click the file and select Create shortcut. 3. Rename this new shortcut to Guild Wars 2 Repair. 4. Right-click on Guild Wars 2 Repair and select Properties. 5. Locate the Target line and add –image to the end.
This is the only problem that doesn't seem to have a solution yet. I just re-installed windows, got a new client, let it download everything again and the problem persists. Switching to my old GTX 280 card on the same computer fixes the problem.
I believe at this point the game just can't handle 4GB vram.

that makes no sense , i was able to play the last betas, and was able to update the game just fine since the beggining...

I opened the client last Sunday, new 4GB card already installed and the client didn't crash, this is happening after the last update. I agree it doesn't make any sense, but I believe I have nothing left to test.
Edit: This is from the error log, have a look, especially the last line.

I'm getting the same error now.
I was getting the same error earlier, downloaded GW2Setup, run as administrator and compatibility mode and the problem disappeared (for a while) then when it reached the final 3 files the error reappeared. Odd

This seems very strange to me. But it should certainly be reported and worked on. That's what betas are for, after all. It's better to see such a debilitating and irritating problem before release. I just hope something transpires that allows you to test the game next weekend.

Well, I give up for now. Recently finished DLing another copy of the client and the crashing still persists.
Surely though , I don't think its my GPU causing this cause I'm starting to see a lot more people not only here but many other forums complaining about the crashing, and my particular GPU is extremely rare to find right now. Far worse than the reference 680 when they launched.
Hope they fix if before this weekend cause i'm having serious GW2 withdrawls. There isn't a single MMO out or in production thats doing everything ANet are with GW2, and it really disappointing. Although FFXIV is looking mighty awesome after seeing the new 2.0 client and UI...
I downloaded the 5GB patch yesterday and everything seemed to be working ok.
Then I saw this thread this morning and decided to see what it's like today. Well I'm getting this error too. It started a small download and then stopped but it also brought up an error reporting window that sends the log directly to Arenanet. Considering there's two days to go before we need the program, I don't see what the big fuss is about. They obviously know about it, will be implementing a fix and that means there's nothing to worry about............well unless the error is still there on Friday afternoon of course but I highly doubt that will happen.
I run my shortcut with the -image argument and also as administrator. Don't know if that helped or not but I managed to download the final 3 files I was missing (and was getting a crash while downloading)

Maybe they shut down the main server for a reason, the most disturbing thing its that the crash message its in Italian, i wonder why!
I got a small update today, might be a fix....
This is not a game.
I think they fixed it. No problems with updating anymore

Still crashing for me.
Just checked it after your post.

HAHAHAHAhhhh, a most excellent response!
I tested it after seeing this, it downloaded a new small patch (50mb or so) but didn't crash.
I got hungup on the last 2 files as well, after 5 min I just closed it, restarted and it downloaded the rest.
Client works fine.
Isnt there a "file check" option somewhere? That should fix it.
Nope, not helping still crashing after 10 s I fire up patcher.
