    Could be anything. There have been noted issues with the Steam overlay. When you say there's a crash screen, is there a message that says a crash dump has been created? Is the crash screen a generic Windows crash warning?

    You need to include BG2EE in your Data Execution Prevention exception list with the Steam version. It's a known issue and Beamdog has instructions on their support page that tell you how to go about it. The same thing happened to me but now it's working just fine.
