Hello, ill start off with I bought the game Monday of this week and have only been able to play it 3 times.

What is happening / What I have already done
1. Run game first time after install, runs perfect, run second time after install and it stutters.
2. Run third time and it crashes before starting 25% of time, on the splash screen 50% or crashes at beginning loading 25% of time. Either way I have not been able to start the game back up.

At this point I start diagnosing my own problems because this is fucking ridiculous.

1. Opened event viewer and found this:
"Faulting application path: E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Far Cry3\bin\farcry3_d3d11.exe
Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\nvwgf2um.dll"

2. I start researching that exact file just to find out that there's not much about it.
3. I run DxDiag and it says Direct3D and DirectShow have problems, bypass them. So I did and went to the display tab to find out only my GFX card name was listed nothing else.
4. I think, then take out GFX card and start on integrated, fucking game works no problem, just laggy. So now I know its something wrong with GFX card.
5. Call NVidia and he tells me what to do to clean reinstall drivers. I do that so now I am on (361.82) NVidia drivers instead of (361.75) drivers.
6. Rerun DxDiag and now it everything shows up but still says DirectPlay is broke and some drivers are not WHQL signed.
7. Restart game, DOSENT WORK, rerun DxDiag says Direct3D and DirectShow are broke and no GFX card info except name again.

Summary / TLDR
The game doesn't work with GFX card (GTX 760) in the computer but when I take it out, integrated graphics (i7-4770S) it works no problem. Also game corrupts my Display tab in DxDiag and all the info turns into n/a except the name of the GFX card. If I uninstall drivers and reinstall drivers everything appears back but game still doesn't work.
