Game Crashing - savagedreamlord - 06-01-2016

The game crashes during play at random times.

This is the error I receive; it is always identical:
EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in module nvogl32.dll at 0023:08AE8B2A, DrvPresentBuffers()+1873338 byte(s)

My video card is supported and has the latest driver.
I have a fresh Windows installation.
Amnesia correctly identifies the card on startup.
I ran a GPU viewer and the OPENGL display correctly shows my card and settings.
My system has no integrated Intel card.
The game is running through Steam and is the latest version.
I uninstalled the game, removed all files, and reinstalled from scratch.
I have closed as many background processes as I can.
I have permissions to all files in the folder.
All graphics settings are at their lowest and post effects and SSAO are turned off.
My video card is set to 32-bit color, VSYNC is forced on. Triple buffering is forced off.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The problem lies with the nvidia drivers which is obvious from the .dll which causes the crash.Try a clean driver reinstall with the latest drivers from nvidia.com directly and reset nvidia control panel settings to default.
