I have reinstalled the game (with a clean install) and have downgraded the drivers for my Nvidia Geforce GTX 650 Ti card several times down from the latest version (320.49) but the game keeps crashing on me at complete random moments; during fights, while standing still, while going through my inventory, etc.

Any help is appreciated.
