Can't leave White Orchard without crashing

');
());

I picked Witcher 3 up during the steam sales and was pretty hyped, considering I have an unprecedented amount of time off right now. Unfortunately, despite having no performance issues until this point, my pc just resets at the cutscene after killing the bandits in at the tavern in White Orchard. I've spent 2 days scouring forums for a fix and have so far tried:

Updating drivers Setting gpu to max performance Disabling GeForce experience Windowed mode (although when I set it to windowed mode it doesn't seem to change from fullscreen) Changing all graphics options to lowest setting Verifying local cache Underclocking gpu and memory

Here's my hardware:

GeForce GTX 970 Intel i7-4790k 4gHz 8GB ram Windows 8.1

Thanks in advance if anyone has a fix.
