Question Valorant crashing - The instruction at 0x%p referenced memory at 0x%p. The memory could not be %s

[ringmany]

Hi everyone,

Around 1 week ago, the game Valorant started crashing for me every time I tried to launch it. I haven't experienced this error with any other game except for Valorant.
When I try to launch the game, I get the error:

"A critical error has occurred and the process must be terminated.
Would you like to create a crash dumpt o adi the developers in troubleshooting this issue? This may take up to 5 minutes."

Inside of my dmp file I'm searching and I can see various errors such as:

I've followed all of their instructions the support team provided (which is basically just deleted and reinstall).
I've deleted the entire game, all folders, files, uninstalled all traces of it. Then reinstalled probably 5 times now. On different drives to be sure.

I've removed all 4 sticks of RAM one by one, to check if it's a hardware issue with them. Same error each time, even with only 1 stick of RAM, changed each restart.

My graphics card drivers are on the latest version, as is my windows. I haven't made any changes to my PC as far as I'm aware.

I'm not sure what else to check. The support team hasn't given me anything to work with, and I'm not certain if it's an issue with the game itself or my PC. I'm not getting errors on other games. If anyone has any suggestions it would be appreciated.

I've attached a copy of the dmp here:
