So far it only happened on the first level, but it happened almost every time.

Edited to add - rolled back to the 466.77 drivers and haven't had a crash since. So, uh, who do we report this to?

Yeah, it's happened to me twice now, just stops, music keeps playing. Very annoying as I was just about clear of the area I was in on both occasions!

(edited to add in case it's useful... both times this error appeared in the windows event log, updated today with 471.11
"Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.")

Just happened to me. I had just updated drivers for the RT support

Just a black screen. No crash message. Had to use task manager to end task.

Edit - Played for another 30mins, had a 2nd crash. Game screen froze, music continues. Had to use task manager once again to end task.

Ok, I have a 1080ti, maybe the issue is only with RTX cards?

Also getting random crashes and thought it was my settings being too high (so I lowered them to medium) great to know that it wasn't them but a driver issue... hmmm they need to fix it asap

3070 FTW. Doesn't happen on other games. Appears to just be DE.

Hey all. You can report this issue using Nvidia's driver feedback form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSewHJk1xP-C5elLBRCDLTLpNQZ9eiefrdZmUGP9hMCN6gKssA/viewform

Remember to include as much as possible for them to create a proper reproduction of the issue. Hopefully it can be fixed sooner than later.
