Dragon Age Origins crashing when casting Winter's Grasp

I have been playing Dragon Age Origins. It is unfortunately crashing whenever a character casts WInter's Grasp. It was working before, but now it crashes I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Also, I've tried clearing the shader cache. I don't know why it started crashing or what more to do to fix the issue. I've attached a copy of my DxDiag file. Here is brief synopsis of my system.

O/S: Windows 11

CPU: Ryzen 9 5900HX

RAM: 16GB
GFX: nVidia GeForce 3050 Ti

HD: NVMe 1TB (300GB free)

If you have any questions or suggestions, please share.

Thanks

I would recommend reinstalling the drivers for the dedicated GPU, odd that the works for the integrated graphics. @Illendria

Do you get any eror codes when you crash? @Illendria

@EA_AticThere is no message. I'm just thrown back to Windows. I have a workaround for now and that is using the integrated graphics card instead of the dedicated GPU.

I've tried reinstalling the drivers with no luck. The game is stable and playable on the integrated graphics. So, I'm just going to leave it at that. Thanks for your recommendation, though. @EA_Atic

I actually don't think it's winter's grasp. the game just quits out, often during saving or loading game. No error message. Just quits. It happened a few times in Ostegar, but then seemed to chill out. But now it's doing it in Lothering as well.
