You very likely have the CPU/bios hardware issue discussed here:
Victoria 3 | 12th/13th/14th Generation Intel Processors
Hello all! An update, 12th and 13th Generation Intel Processors are related to a Crash to Desktop (CTD) happening frequently, this is related to architecture changes by Intel and specifically E-cores. We are working with Intel to address these...
FIRST please check for an updated bios. Then please implement the “Intel Default” option in it, if present.
If that's not there or doesn't help, please go through the above post in detail.
Hopefully those steps will help you as they have others. Good luck!
