For system stability, I strongly recommend to remove the ASUS software and update the drivers I posted previously.

Pranav was faster with the rest

@blueelvis, the closing tags are not to forget.

Fixed. On other forums, only the starting tag is required

Okay, I have follow those steps, so I'll see if the crashes keep occurring as I use photoshop. One question I have though...does uninstalling the NVIDIA driver mean that my NVIDIA graphics card won't work anymore? I play a lot of games on my computer, so if I'm on using the standard Intel card that would be an issue.

You can't use the Nvidia graphics card because it doesn't have drivers anymore and thus doesn't know what to do / how to work.
To get the graphics card working again, you need to install drivers.
The instructions from blueelvis are a clean re-installation of the drivers.

Whoops my mistake! Throughout this process I had previously downloaded the most recent driver for the Intel graphics card, and that file name is very similar to the Nvidia driver blueelivis linked to, so I got confused. I ran what I thought was the file that blueelvis linked to, but turns out it was this Intel driver I previously downloaded. Let me go install the Nvidia driver
