Summary: Starting the game, via either the launcher or going straight to the .exe file, results in a crash during the initial loadup screen. This sometimes crashes my entire PC, requiring a hard reboot. Other times it opens the little crash reporter. I've tried solutions I've read elsewhere such as the 'clean reinstall' (including deleting the hidden folder in ProgramData) with no luck. I was briefly able to get in game by enabling Compatibility Mode > Windows 8 and running as administrator via going straight to the .exe for singleplayer, but didn't make it through character creation before crashing again. The crash dump referenced here is the most recent, but there are probably several from me (assuming those show up on y'alls end and are associated to the same user).
Additionally as a troubleshooting step I tried disabling XMP in my BIOS (figured it might help), but same issue.
If notable I saw this guy's thread: https://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?threads/game-crash-all-time.462415/
I suspect I have the same issue, definitely the same symptoms. Thanks for any help you can provide. If there's an earlier version of the game you'd recommend that's more stable, happy to just try doing that.
(P.S. In filling this out I notice my Nvidia driver is slightly out of date but had already written this up, I'll go ahead and update that/try again and update here if it somehow fixes things.)
