This is one of the many recurring problems with NVIDIA over the years:

Oh i know. I had this issue when playing with AC Valhalla. I even found the bug in my windows event viewer on the newer drivers. People kept saying it was my pc, but nooo..it is the newer drivers. Nvidia does not long term test their newer drivers. They rush them thru the door as fast as they can. Here is the evidence:

Then they blame optimization issues with the games, but it can be the newer drivers too. As i said, that screenshot shows that file is associated with the nvidia driver updates. All those errors are when my pc crashed playing the game.

To play that game, i ended up rolling back 2 drivers.

BTW, intel follows the same practice too. that is why they sold those intel faulty overcharged chips for 13 and 14 gen chips.

Just enable user permissions to full control (security tab under properties) for nvlddmkm.sys in system32.
