Turbulent Displace causing crashes after new update

Using Turbulent Displace with an animated "Evolution" property crashes After Effects.

Using After Effects 24.2.1 in Windows 11. GPU drivers are up to date.

I've been using Turbulent Displace for years now to create a jumpy squiggly line effect on text and drawings. Just after the most recent update, it now crashes the app in all but the most simple comps. If a comp has only one or two elements, it seems to work okay, but any comp of complexity (10 or more layers, nested comps, etc.) crashes if Turbulent Displace in introduced in any way (on an adjustment layer or individual layers or on the comp as a whole).

I have an Intel i9 CPU, RTX 4080 GPU and 64GB of RAM. Again, been using TD for years in this way and never encountered this. Very easy to replicate, and I've methodically eliminated all other effects and plugins. The crash happens with complete predictability within seconds of applying Turbulent Displace with an animated Evolution parameter.

Update for you! I went ahead and updated my BIOS and have not had a crash since then! I'm still holding my breath as I work but so far that seems to have solved my problem!

It says "ATTEMPTED_EXECUTE_OF_NOEXECUTE_MEMORY" which seems from my research can be hardware or virus or driver problems. I already ran a memory check and there were no problems.

If you get a blue screen of death, grab the error code that shows up. BSOD's are almost always caused by hardware failures but the error code should help point us in a direction.

P.S. most of the time is just closes AE, but occasionally it's a full blue screen of death.

not really, i update plugins occasionally with aescripts app manager, but I've disabled all 3rd party plugins and it doesn't help. My next step I think is to wipe my c drive and reinstall Windows. Or maybe update BIOS? I don't know what else to do. For the record, AE is operating normally as long as I don't use Turbulent Displace. It's really weird.

Can you think of anything else you've recently adjusted on your computer. I can see a Wacom tablet driver in the dmp file, is that new? Any other new plugins? I can see Particular is loaded into memory in the dmp file.

I can usually preview it once, but if I start making adjustments, it will crash shortly thereafter

Just for a little more context: when monitoring my system, it seems like on playback, my CPU maxes out just before the crash. As if something about Turbulent Displace + Posterize Time floods the CPU and triggers the crash.

No, I haven't been able to reproduce the crash. I am able to open the project, preview the whole thing, etc.
