[2023] Consistent crashing on start up

Hello! It appears the Intel(R) UHD Graphics is incorrectly set as your primary GPU.

This is consequently resulting in your crashes, as your primary GPU cannot handle the demand. Please see below for our solutions for this problem:

• Ensure your monitors are plugged in to the dedicated (as opposed to the integrated) GPU ports on the back of your PC

• Perform a clean re-installation of your GPU drivers: https://support.fatshark.se/hc/en-us/articles/360021233554--PC-How-to-perform-a-clean-re-installation-of-your-NVIDIA-GPU-drivers
