After installing the latest drivers with the crimson edition software causes a bug
After you open the neverwinter application and hits play the cryptic logo appears and then the neverwinter logo after it finishes loading just before the character selection screen the application quits and you go back to the desktop!!

    Same issue here.
    Radeon HD 7800 Series Graphics with 2048 Gb GDDR5 memory;
    AMD FX 8150 eight-core processor, 16 GB system memory;
    Win 10

    Edit: I tried to run the game via safe mode and ran across some issues when I tried to adjust the settings.

    1. If you change the settings from windowed to fullscreen and change resolution to desktop res, the mouse cursor is confined to a box in the size of the safe mode resolution (800x600), which means you can't reach any button outside of this frame (in short: all buttons) and have to end the game via task monitor (ctrl+alt+del) and restart it again.

    2. As I started adjusting the graphics settings, i found that everything works fine, even in the highest settings - unless I touched the antialiasing settings. Antialiasing off - everything is fine, but if I dare to set it on 2x - poof. Crash to desktop.

    I hope this helps to adjust this issue.

    I have had very similar problems for a while.
    New to the Crimson driver: I cannot use Anti-alias now.

    For the last year, through multiple system re-builds and hardware changes, I have not been able to use DX11+High Shadows without near instant crashes. (DX9/DX9ex were fine with High Shadows though...)

    Current:
    Win 10 (1511) Pro x64
    AMD FX-8350
    Radeon R9-290X
    32 GB DDR3-1600


    Problems have followed through Win7pro x64, Win8/8.1/10 (fresh installs)
    With 3 different Motherboards (ASUS, GigaByte), chipsets 970/990FX
    Multiple video cards: R9-290 and R9-290X. (my old Radeon HD7850 seems fine but not tested in my Win10 rig)
    1.5 years of AMD Drivers, every beta release tested.

    New to Win10:
    Ridiculously low frame rates. On the same system, using a dual boot:
    Win7: I get 50-60 fps everywhere
    Win10: 20 fps in PE, 8 fps in Strongholds.

    Really want to see some fixes!

    I'm seeing the exact same behavior on my rig.

    Win 7 64-bit
    AMD FX-8350
    2x Radeon HD 7970 3GB in Crossfire
    16GB DDR3 - 1880MHz at CASL 10

    I just upgraded to the AMD Radeon Crimson 15.12 drivers.

    Same as it's described above, I would crash as GameClient.exe would load. Ran the game in Safe Mode and got in, was able to set all settings to Max but if I add any level of AntiAliasing the game freezes. I tried forcing AA in the new Radeon Settings application and it doesn't improve image quality.

    I'm running in DX11 mode, haven't tried DX9 mode yet.

    Minor update for me, using the newest Crimson 15.12 driver:
    I can use AA but cannot use any Shadows.

    If I enable shadows I get screen corruption within minutes then a graphics driver crash soon after.

    Dx9ex fixes most crashes, the game has some issues with the dx11 renderer(crashes for me randomly every 10 mins or so), my game is running fine on dx9ex on win 7 64bit and an r9 290x with everything on max even 8x msaa 1080p and all that, windowed fullscreen, because its easier to alt tab out from, and the latest non-beta crimson driver(15.12).

    I'm also using 16gb dual kit ddr3 1600mhz ram.

    Hmm seems like all of you are using amd CPU's, I'm using an intel i5-4670, the problem might be related to the CPU in some way.
