black screen after data server select

I'm not sure if this problem is connected with the other problems i'm seeing on here but i'm getting no error so i'm confused. After selecting a data server, through either the start or data server menu it connects and then fades to the black loading screen and just stays there. I have let it sit there for hours, i get no errors or anything and its not freezing because i can hit esc at any point and it asks about quiting. Has anyone had this problem or know anything about it? Thanks in advance

after going through all the forum i cant find anything like it.. i am aware that my current pc is not ideal for ffxiv, but it has been running it flawlessly till now
