[Resolved] Baldur's Gate I & II crashing on startup

Greetings,
I am encountering game crashes (a standard Windows "Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition has stopped working") about 4 seconds after launching the games, happening with both Baldur's Gate enchanced editions (though I'm mainly interested in solving the issue for II). The crashes happen independently of what I do (e.g. whether I skip the Beamdog logo or not).
Both games were working fine the last time I launched them, on the 12th of June and I've noticed that 3 Windows 10 updates happened in the meantime: I have now uninstalled 2 of them (Windows doesn't let me uninstall the third one) but this did not solve the issue; as far as driver updates go, I shouldn't have had any in this period (I don't have any software that automatically downloads drivers and as far as I recall I didn't do it manually).
I also tried verifying the game cache through Steam to no avail.
Attached is a DxDiag

Thanks
It looks like there is a newer driver for your graphics card and the release notes there mention potential game crashes with one specific setting so you could also check that.
Could you try the automatic detect/install based at http://www.amd.com/en-us/markets/game/downloads
The bit I read was at http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows+10+-+64 but best to try and auto-detect first.
Thanks
