Max Payne 3 Steam crash

Max Payne 3 Steam crash - Firemen Spraying on Flaming Vehicle

I missed playing Max Payne 3 when it came out and bought it on Steam recently.

Unfortunately the game crashes every time at the same scene when I rescue Rodriguez from the van in the garage in the first chapter. As soon as Max opens the door and he comes out, the game crashes.

I already tried playing the scene without full-screen and with -safemode option.

I am running a 2600k, two 970s in SLI (tried with SLI disabled already) and Win10. Latest drivers and everything of cource.

Any ideas what to do? Did not found anything interesting on google yet concidering this specific issue.
