Intro
A few months ago, I was one of the group of people who could not get into a game without crashes. I tried everything, turning off Steam overlay, setting compatibility options, and lowering graphics settings. However, I found a way to play Insurgency without crashes.

Keep in mind, this may/ may not work for you. A friend of mine has had these crashes, but using the steps helped him play Insurgency without crashes.
The Method
So when you enter the main menu of Insurgency, go to Options, then Graphics and Video, and then finally to Advanced Video settings. From there, you will see an item called "Paged Pool Memory Available." In most cases, this will be set on high. Click on it and change it to low, save settings, and you're done! (If it is already set on low, I can't help you. )

Closing words.
Anyways, that's what helped 'fix' Insurgency for me. Hope it works for you as it did for me.

Cheers :)

That might be a problem, actually. I'm running this on Windows and that option is there for me.

@democraticmyass

Can you be more specific? By 'couldn't find it,' do you mean the Paged Pool Memory option, or what?

That sucks. Sorry it didn't help.
