Damifino, I'm not a Windows person.  But I'd suggest methodically
removing each and every bit of non-default software you've got,
to see if you can find one that causes the failure.  We know that
the failure does not occur on stock Windows or with most popular
add-ons, so unusual add-ons deserve a close look.
