Launcher Instantly Crashes

My FF14 Launcher is instantly crashing on me. As soon as it opens up it crashes saying that "Final Fantasy XIV has stopped working".

It was working just fine about a week ago. The only difference is that I installed a beta driver from Nvidia but I reverted back to the official released one.

System Specs:
GTX470
i7 at 3.6ghz
12gigs of DDR3
Windows 7 64-bit

I paused my anti-virus, changed the resolution (this shouldn't do anything since it's affecting the launcher, but you may never know), ran it under administrator, and even re-installed the game. What's going on?

Did you use a driver cleaner? nVidia drivers are known to leave lots of stuff behind even after deinstallation.

Nope. Actually that's the first time I've heard of that. Would you mind suggesting one that works the best?

Google is your friend. Or try the "clean install" option in the nv installer(if there is such an option).

It didn't do a thing. I tried using a Driver cleaner and even manually uninstalled the drivers via the control panel.

What's your ingame graphics settings?

Window Size: 1920x1080
Display Mode: Full Screen
Mulstisampling: 2x MSAA
Buffer Size: Resolution
Shadow Detail: Highest
Ambient Occlusion: off
Depth of Field: off
Disable cutscene effects: off
Texture Quality: High
Texture Quality Filter: High

Again, it's the VERY first pop up of the launcher. Like the downloader/patcher is the one that instantly stops working.

The patcher uses direct3d and is pretty crappily coded. For now try moving the ffxiv folder in your username\my documents\my games\ to the desktop, run the config and set UPnP to "do not use" and try again.

edit:
Also clean the temp folder.

Still a no go. Thank you for all your efforts but I'm gonna do a full virus scan and see if anything wonky got in. Hopefully it's just that. Again, thank you so much for helping me out.
