I have been trying to play for a while, I have tried:
- Deleting all files and re-downloading Minecraft,
- Updated Java (tried newest Java 7, as well as Java 8)
I just can't figure out what is causing it.
Modded Minecraft in other launchers works just fine, but vanilla in other launchers doesn't work either.
My machine runs Windows 8.1, 6GB RAM
Here is the error I'm getting:
Error:

As @aytimothy has said, in the comment plus this is his answer to the question one.

A EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) means that Java is unable to read/write to the disk. This has nothing to do with the Minecraft game files itself, but rather the run-time it depends on (requires to run, just like how some games require DirectX etc.)
You can fix this by running java.exe (or javaw.exe) as an administrator.
See this java documentation link for more details.
By the seems of this, Java cannot open your minecraft.jar, which is the game itself, of which stopping at the point where it loads the textures.
