UPDATE
So I tried different things again for example, I reinstalled miktex again, this time only for the current user since I read somewhere that I fixed some other problems. Unfortunately that didn't fix it. But I also reinstalled texstudio which at first wasn't able to locate the latex distribution (weird?!) so I manually plugged those in and lo an behold I’m now able to run the hello world file both in pdflatex and xelatex! I can also do this now with older projects. Funny enough this still doesn't work with texmaker. At some stage it was complaining that it couldn’t find some log file now it seems like it’s compiling but wont put out any pdf. I guess it might have to do with the reinstall of miktex but it’s ok because I don't want to use texmaker anyways.
Still though I can’t compile the main project I’m working on. I still get the same error message complaining that the tex capacity is exceeded.
But I feel like I’m getting there!
Cheers,
Marius

Hey!
Thanks for your quick reply! I tried what you said but it didn't work. I got a different error code though: Sorry, but pdflatex did not succeed.
Here is what it says in the log files respectively:
2015-10-09 12:22:14,065+0200 FATAL pdflatex - Bad parameter value.
2015-10-09 12:22:14,065+0200 FATAL pdflatex - Info: font_mem_size
2015-10-09 12:22:14,065+0200 FATAL pdflatex - Source: Libraries\MiKTeX\TeXAndFriends\include\miktex/TeXAndFriends/TeXApp.h
2015-10-09 12:22:14,065+0200 FATAL pdflatex - Line: 377
(It’s the exact same thing for both pdflatex and xelatex)
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
Marius

Try out a hello-world.tex:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
hello
\end{document}
Compile it on a command line with
pdflatex hello-world
and
xelatex hello-world
If it fails too, show the log-file.
