Photoshop CC crashes on startup - Win7 (64bit)

Question

Photoshop CC crashes on startup. I've tried reinstalling, rebooting, logging out of the cloud and back in again with no luck. I often recieve a notification stating to complete my user registration. When I do so I get a message from the adobe site saying Photoshop CS5 benefits are no longer avaliable (not sure why).
Also on startup, adobe updater.exe crashes. I download it again and tried reinstalling. It still crashes (could the be causing the Ps CC problem?). Any help would be appreiciated.

Apparently my NVidia graphics drivers are causing adobe's Updater.exe to crash o...
I've tried contacting NVidia, followed there instructions and they've now told me to try to contact Adobe again (see below). 
With the new drivers Photoshop will now stay open long enough for me to access a menu. The menu will also stay open indeffinetly but Ps CC will close immediatly afterwards. I was able to see that Photoshop was not using my Adobe ID. Not sure if this is any help.
