    The NVIDIA drivers released on January 24,2017 currently cause modified minecraft to crash during startup. If you find your modpacks suddenly crashing on startup, and you recently updated your video card drivers you can safely roll them back to the December 14,2016 version or install the hotfix.

    Driver downgrade: NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search

    Hotfix: GeForce Hot Fix driver version 378.57 | NVIDIA

    Update: Latest update (378.66) Fixes the bug.

    You mean in general, or with the newer drivers? Vanilla worked fine which is odd.

    Thanks. I'm so glad when some game seemingly unplayable becomes playable using a relatively simple fix like a driver rollback.
