Is this crash on game startup, starting a new campaign, or while playing?
Has it always happened or used to be okay up to some point?

Its while playing, i can only play 10 min before it crashes outta nowhere. I tried deleting old saves starting a new campaign too. And im having this issue since last month and havent found a solution yet
Right click on ck3.exe , properties, compatibility. Tick "disable fullScreen optimisations" untick every other box in that dialog, Apply and exit.
Then in the launcher Game Settings menu, select fullScreen display mode, Vsync off, cap refresh rate at 60.
If those don't help:
DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.
IF dxdiag.txt fails to attach here, rename it to dxdiag.log , or zip it up.
Please attach here your Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3/pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log , exceptions.txt

At the least you have a memory problem:
As you can see above 2gb of your system memory is unavailable to Windows. This is due to poor memory configuration by HP; the 2gb of video memory in your Vega8 integrated video system has been given memory addresses in the 6-8gb range. meaning those same addresses cannot be used for the system memory as well.
There will be a bios option to change the Vram addressing to above 8gb, freeing up that 2gb of system memory which is currently wasted. You may need to contact HP support on that.
Once you've fixed the above, Please expand your Windows paging file maximum size to 32gb

AND exit every other app you can before starting the game.
If that doesn't help, new copies of all those files please.
The game's minimum requirement is 6gb all to itself, and with DLCs more realistically 8gb+.
