I've been having this issue for a while, and now that I'm done with Mass Effect for a while, I thought I'd try to get some help before I jump back into Skyrim. After exiting the character creator at the execution site, my screen briefly flashes(to windowed mode, I think. I see Microsoft Blue at the top of the screen when it happens), and then Hadvar gives me the line about it being a bad time to return to my homeland no matter what race I pick. Then, when I am finally able to view my character in 3rd person perspective, my head is gone, as if I had changed my race.
I can get around this by downloading a save of the appropriate race that's been saved after character creation and just editing it from there, but that's a workaround, not a fix. I've done a clean install, deactivated all my mods... nothing helps. The one thing I haven't done is flat out delete all my mods because I think I'd rather just deal with the problem than do that. I'm running on Win7 64-bit. My PC is running with a 2500K Sandy Bridge and 2x 560TI in SLI(latest drivers) and on board sound(ASUS Maximus IV Extreme Rev 3.0). Here's my BOSS LOG:
