Run the nVidia Control Panel and go into 3D settings. Force eu4.exe to run on the "integrated Intel" option instead of nVidia.

That will be slower, but see if you still get these crashes when you do the HRE menu thing. If so there's an issue in the nVidia setup somewhere.

Done that and managed to play around 10 years until crash happened. This time at building menu. No problems with HRE menu
 
As those video changes helped, I guess we are in the right area. Is the game now capped at 60 fps?

All I can think of now is to reduce the game's video quality settings as much as you can stand - city sprawl, reflections, shadows, trees, etc. Does that help further?

Integral graphic card cant manage to produce more than 30 fps. And no, even with lowering video quality crashes still occure.
 
Do you have any overclocking active in this machine? If so please try disabling it.

Otherwise I'm pretty much out of ideas on this one!
 
I frankly didn't expect it to help, as I didn't think it was a game bug in the first place.

But I'm no wiser as to where the problem in your setup is to cause this to you!
