What I found so far:
- Your system DPI (size of items on your screen) is set to 125% which can cause crashes in some games. Try setting this to 100%.
- Your monitor is not set to its native resolution of 1280 x 720(p) (60.000Hz)
- Your GPU drivers are newer then the latest drivers available for your device - this means that you might not have the correct drivers for your card. (there is also a beta available, not sure if those would work for your system).
- Also try disabling Origin in-game.
Let me know if that helps.
Now instead of crashing on a couple of tracks it is audio only and black screen. I had to count the clicks and close it by memory because ctrl alt tab wouldn't let me out . Windows buttons failed to release me as well. Now it is completely unplayable Gee thx.

I cannot detect anything else on your dxdiag other than what I already found in my previous post.
If the game is still crashing then prepare an MSINFO report (this contains personal information - do not post it on the forum) and reach out to an EA Advisor - they will be able to see the cause of your game crashes.
Note that it could also be that your GPU is starting to show signs of age.
Don't blame my computer. I run Dragon Age Inquisition and Witcher 3 without a hiccup. Your recommendation made the game UNPLAYABLE instead of just crashing on a few tracks. This game is a lump of *.

The only thing that we really did is update your drivers. I see that you choose to go for the beta ones which could hold problems in itself. Instead, try reverting to the latest non-beta drivers on the page that I linked you.
