Try to force DX9 Mode. Worked for me.

How to force DX9 mode:
Go to C:\Users\USERNAME\Documents\My Games\DiRT3\hardwaresettings
Open hardware_settings_config.xml with wordpad.
Edit the line <directx forcedx9="false" /> to <directx forcedx9="true" /> and save.

Yes, I am.
Just wondering if you've disabled the touch screen driver for Windows 10? It's really annoying for some games as it causes them to crash/not-start-up

Have u tried to update your VIDEO DRIVER mate? Try turnning the DSR to minimal, turnnig off the v-sync, and setting everything to "application controled" on your VIDEO DRIVER SOFTWARE...then, try running it on "compatibility mode" , or, as a "administrator". But first, try updating your VIDEO DRIVER SOFWARE...
