Genome Gaming System stopped working.

Hey guys, I've been playing Gothic 3 for a while now ever since the trilogy pack. I've got the 1.75 patch working and played a lot of it already with no problems. I have the latest DirectX 11 and am not running any mods at all. I've not messed with the files and only encountered the problem after having played a certain amount of time. I've also tried to put all my graphic settings to the lowest, which doesn't seem to work. Anyone encountered this and knows a fix?

Just as a side note I have tried the DEP fix (http://forum.nordicgames.at/threads/139859-genome-gaming-system-has-stopped-working) and I already had it set to essentials only. So that can't be it. My operating system is windows 7 with Intel core i5.

Gothic 3 uses dx9, maybe trying to install the dx9 from microsoft page will help.
Ive been using whatever patch came with the original steam install (1.60 i think) and ive been playing without issues for over 30hrs.
Is there a particular place where you encounter the problem?

It was quite odd. I encountered this problem heavily at Trelis. It crashed after less than one minute. Either during dialogue or shortly before encountering the sneaky ogres. Oddly enough when I restarted my computer and moved on from the area, the problem became more rare, as if the game had an episode? It works fine now and I changed literally nothing. Maybe I was playing too much on one day and the game overloaded? Seems to work ok now.
