U2713H, Color calibration problems

Trying to calibrate monitor Dell Ultrasharp U2713H using application Dell Ultrasharp Color Calibration Solution and X-rite i1 Display Pro device. When I start the application, the display gets a magenta background. If  I continue the calibration process, when it gets to [Step 2 of 7] Measuring calibration patch 44 of 44, the application crashes and I get the following message on the screen:

"Dell Color Application stopped working properly due to a problem. Windows will close the application and will let you know if there is a solution.".

After closing the application I have to restart the computer to get rid of the strong magenta background on the screen.

I use Windows 8.1 Pro. I would very much appreciate your help to solve the problem and to be able to calibrate the U2713H display.

Regards
