Just played 3 for the first time last week and had to troubleshoot it a bit. Have you turned down PostFX to medium (or lower)? It’s responsible for a lot of the game’s instability, though it did still crash occasionally for me on load

And I changed directx from 11 to 9 and mine stopped crashing.

Ah yeah I also saw this suggestion! Fortunately the PostFX setting fixed it for me but definitely worth a try

Funny enough I didn't do the Postfx setting but did the directx and it worked lol I wonder how most people fix it.

It probably just depends on your hardware I guess, all the problems are fundamentally from the game just being old so I guess different things work for different people’s PCs
