When you clicked "Register," did the game make any indication that the button was being pressed (ie:  graphical change or sound effect)?

If the button wasn't even responding within the GUI, there's a chance that a pop-up like the "Activate Windows" alert was blocking your cursor from reaching it.

If that's the case, and you can't resolve the invisible pop-up blocking your buttons, try running the game in windowed mode and moving the game window over or down a little to gain access to the character creation's Register button.

Alternatively, just hit the "Next" button in the bottom-right corner while on the "Custom" tab.

 

What time of day were you attempting this, and had you validated your install immediately prior to booting up the game?

There's a chance you may have started the instance of the program prior to a patch, and the game version was mismatched by the time you finished your character.  That has happened to me in the past.

The only workaround there is to save your costume design and power customization settings, shut down entirely, and then revalidate/update and launch again.

 

If you were hitting the "Register" tab expecting the game to launch, then note that you need to actually hit the "Next" button at the bottom right corner of the Register screen to actually begin playing.
