This SOLUTION worked for me, as well as the author of the original post.

 

The issue, specifically in my scenario, is the Dead Space 2 folder in the User/Documents folder, where saved games are located for EA Games.  

 

I have all three versions of Dead Space.   It wasn't until I removed the Dead Space 2 folder from the EA Folder in the User Documents folder, that the crash stopped occurring.

 

Now instead of Dead Space 2 and Dead Space 3 folders, I have only Dead Space 3.

I just purchased the first Dead space and was having this issue, "run as administrator" worked like a champ!  Thank You for your knowledgeable assistance.  It is running through GeForce Experience without a single hiccup. Thanks Again!
