Every time I try to run the game, it immediately crashes and shows this screen. I thought it might be my graphics drivers, so I installed an older version of them from October, but it still crashes. Does anyone know what the problem is?

What are your system specs? Are you on a laptop?
If on laptop, open the Nvidia GeForce Experience, and set "Battery Boost" to OFF
Also, ensure the AC power adapter is connected when launching
You can go ahead and update to the newest drivers again.
Any issues with other games?
Definitely verify integrity of the game files. You can also consider the hard reset detailed here, backup your settings files first (if you don't, your custom mercenaries will be deleted): https://discord.com/channels/275436245318893568/1028699557430824980
Some also report fixing it with DDU (completely wiping graphics drivers and then installing them fresh)

Hello, I don't know if I can just come and ask, but I'm having the same problem as him, the I tried the hard reset and it worked, but for some reason, as soon as I change anything on the video settings, the game will just start crashing again for some reason 😵 the slightest change just kills it, even changing FOV or the motion blur setting

Interesting, and very strange. Thanks for confirming hard reset as possible solution. There are lines about "resize viewport", can you confirm you're using the correct resolution for your display? Try Windowed versus Borderless vs Fullscreen (Alt+Enter toggles fullscreen too). Check if your GameUserSettings.ini is read-only (it should not be), and look through it. You can upload it here for us to have a look too.

I already fixed it but thanks, I don't know why, but anytime I tried to change the screen setting in-game it would crash, I changed it in GameUserSettings.ini to borderless and it worked somehow
but yeah my resolution was the right one

I think it's just my laptop's problem, he doesn't seem to like fullscreen, almost every game I play now crashes when I alt-tab 🥲 (mordhau seems to be a bit more problematic tho)

Make sure you have the correct and up to date drivers, you could consider a DDU wipe and fresh install. Also, see here: https://old.reddit.com/r/gamedev/comments/xtg6ug/why_are_some_games_more_prone_to_crash_when_i/
