It was fine for me too yesterday. Today was terrible, I kind of fixed my crash problem but now I have these stupid driver issues to deal with it. Try turning on Load Loose Files in Data Files and see if that makes your crashes less frequent. It helped me and I don't have many crashes at all anymore. (Well I have one every now and then but you get the point.)
Okay, that prevented it from crashing, but most of the game isn't loading well - I just entered a cave, and nothing but some food and a barrel loaded, so I don't know where I am walking....gah.
