Skate launching from Steam crashes PC

I know this is a known issue, but wanted to add because I haven't seen any official statement or feedback for this issue apart from a few workaround hacks which shouldn't be the norm - including launching from the EA App.

I launch skate from Steam like I would any other game (which before I have verified the files prior) and it opens a small screen with a progression bar below - once it reaches to what I'd assume is 100%, screen goes blank as if it's about to launch the game in full screen. Waited 10 minutes and still no luck, so I ALT-TAB out into Chrome to try and restart the program, however I can move the mouse but no clicks or keyboard inputs do anything, including Task Manager - thus forcing me to restart my PC.

I've seen workarounds for forcing the launch in window mode, and even when launching the game and the small loading screen comes up to immediately ALT-TAB to another program like Chrome to then wait 5 minutes and you should then play the game, but this is insane to do every single time.

NVIDIA is updated to the latest driver (version 581.29  released on the Sept 10th, and running RTX4090, but this needs to be resolved soon as it kills any enthusiasm to quickly launch and play.
