Ever since the last patch I can't get past the loading screen with steam overlay on. Anyone else?

I had it working up until the recent wpf patch, now something about loading setting data makes it crash.

All right my bad.

I thought I had checked run as admin for 'Steam.exe' and 'GameOverlayUI.exe' already but I hadn't. I checked both of those and restarted steam now it works.

Actually I have it working now but I've still no understanding of it.

It started crashing again even with steam running as admin. I looked in the rgl log to see what the crash was and it was something about memory, so I turned load textures on demand back on and now steam overlay works fine. I have 3gb of vram and 8gb of ram so I've no idea why who what where or how.
