Frequent crashing on good system

Long story short, I have a Win7 PC with more than enough required to run this game (which I did back in the mid-2000's on an older, lesser machine).  I get at least 1 crash per hour, usually more, at random times, alone or in/near big groups doesn't seem to matter.  No lag, just crash.  I've also tried running in WinXP compatibility mode, and it still happens (though it didn't for over an hour right after trying that).  Here is the data on the crash; if anyone has an ideas, please let me know and thanks in advance.

I've updated the Nvidia drivers, and some days I don't crash at all, while others it's anywhere from 1 to 4 or 5 times still, with the same error message.  Even since the recent patch for the game itself.  Getting frustrating not being able to play this older-style game on a newer system.

Only in CoH.  I mean, R6-Siege crashes every once in a while, like 1/week or 2/month, but nothing as repeated and pervasive as this.  Tonight it crashed twice, once after just a few minutes logging in, and then after about 1.5 hours.  And in that long span, now all kinds of surfaces in the game environment are flashing at me, even character costumes sometimes.  The random/excessive crashing is quite disappointing.

I've been doing some web research about the file, nvoglv32.dll, and perhaps this forum answer might work.  I do have that file on my PC, but it's in the SysWOW64 folder...the System32 folder only has the nvoglv64.dll version of the dll file.  Perhaps the Score.exe application is looking for the 32-bit version of this file in the wrong place?  Would it hurt to copy the 32 version out of the SysWOW64 folder and simply paste it into the System32 one?

I actually placed the copied dll file into the same folder where all of the 'new' CoH files are located (apparently My Documents is where Score decided to default install them), and...so far so good, just a few screen 'burps' now & then, like it was about to crash but kept running fine.  *fingers crossed*

Alright, I'll give that a go as well.  Fingers crossed again, hehe.  Thanks for the advice!

 

(I never had any lag, just random crashing.  Both normal (where I could copy & paste the error log data), and whole screen/system freeze-ups where the only option was hard shutdown/reboot.)

Hmm, well my graphics card works fine on other games.  I suspect the end result of all of this will be I'll have to reinstall the whole game/launcher.  The crashes today included an entire system freeze-up, screen/keyboard/everything, necessitating a hard Reset/reboot; and 2 of these:
