Unity Constant Crashing

I have searched everywhere for a solution pertaining to my specific situation but I have yet to find an answer. Now I can create new project and get past the loading screen only if I have no projects previously saved. Once I get into the editor with this new project I just created I can place objects and things like that but when I create a script unity crashes. So far scripts are the only thing I have tested but scripts are pretty vital to being able to make anything interesting at all in unity. I have to open task manager and end task. Once that is done I try to re open Unity. Unity just stays on the loading screen and goes to not responding mode. The only way I can manage to open Unity again is if I delete the project. This error is making Unity completely unusable.
PS: This is my first time ever attempting to use Unity and have never used it before.
I have already tried reinstalling.

System Details:
Windows 8 OS
Intel(R) Coreā„¢ i3-2120 CPU @ 3.30GHz
6GB Ram (5.88 usable)
64-bit OS, x64-based processor

Have you tried -force -d3d11 or -force -opengl? If not here is a good thread on them.
