Recurring Game Crash - DirectX Error

I keep regularly having game crashes with no clear thread linking them together. Each time I get a DirectX error message suggesting the driver is crashing as the root cause, as it lists the driver by name (Nvidia driver 566.03). This has happened in battles but most often it happens while just walking around in the game, and once even while just sitting in the pause menu. I have reinstalled the video driver, verified the game install, updated my BIOS and chipset drivers to the latest available, and toggled various graphics settings on and off as I have seen suggested in forums elsewhere with no luck. I have considered rolling back to a previous driver but as the one I am using is the one specifically touted as "game-ready" for Veilguard I'd have to assume it's the best one I can be using. Also what's strange is the GPU does not seem taxed in the least, temps rarely even exceed 60 C and performance is otherwise excellent so the the regularity of these crashes is particularly odd to me.

AMD 7900X3D

Nvidia RTX 3070

No overclocks or changes on CPU or RAM, default manufacturer overclock on GPU.

    I'm having the same issues. The furthest I've gotten in the game is through the eluvian. I've done all of the things people suggest as solutions, but none of them have worked. I'm really hoping there will be a patch or hotfix soon. I've waited for this for ten years!

    I get the same error message when I try to launch the game. It comes up immediately, so I haven't even played the game yet. I've tried many solutions, also the ones listed here, but for me nothing works. Even reinstalling Windows did not solve the issue. Hopefully a patch or something will come soon...
