BG:EE crashing at launch

Hey everyone! I'm wanting to get back into BG/SoD but when I try to start BGI (from either Steam or the BG icon on desktop) it just crashes (with error message and saying crash dmp saved) a few seconds after double clicking.
At first I thought it was unfinished business or the NPC project mod. NPC project had a new version so I uninstalled and reinstalled that - no dice.
I then fully uninstalled and reinstalled BGI, making sure to remove the folders from the steam and documents directories in between and it's still crashing. Drivers are up to date.
Any ideas?

    Soooo, my AMD drivers were only 2 months old and all my other games worked fine but something in the drivers apparently wasn't right. Got the latest drivers and it launches fine.

    Mods - feel free to delete this thread. Thanks!

    It's better to let this thread stay for other players.
    Cheers!
