    I removed 531.18 and went back to 528.49, I played 5 rounds without problems, everything indicates that the crashes I was having were the new driver.

I installed the game again and now the crash time has decreased, before I managed 10 minutes of gameplay now it's 5m and I'm back to the desktop

    It really is the GeForce Experience overlay that is causing the crash after the 4.0 update, I reinstalled the GE Experience and the game crashed after 5 minutes. 


    update 4.0 and GeForce Experience overlay are not getting along lol

      @JasonVoorHeesxD you could try to use DDU to delete all nvidia drivers.
      Pre download latest nvidia driver and ddu first

      Now disconnect from internet/network
      then uninstall nvidia software with windows / apps
      then boot into windows safe mode and use DDU to remove all nvidia related drivers / file / folders / registry keys

      reboot but do not connect with internet / network
      install the pre downloaded nvidia driver
      reboot
      reconnect internet / network
      test game

      cheers
