Unable to play since yesterday

Hello, I was playing just fine yesterday, but as I was flying around in Ahm Araeng, the game suddenly crashed to desktop without an error or warning. I tried to get back in to the game, and after logging in with my character and waiting for the loading to finish, the game crashed to desktop right after it finished loading (again with no error or warning).

After this, I went to update my graphics card drivers; unfortunately it was still crashing but this time there was an error message.

I then restarted my computer, which had no effect.
I reinstalled the drivers, which allowed me to get past the loading screen, and the game seemed to be running fine for a while but then I teleported somewhere and it crashed again.
Next, I followed the steps in this forum post (except port forwarding), which allowed me to play for a bit, but crashed again after teleporting 3 times to Ul'Dah > Castrum Oriens > Ala Ghanna (CRASH).

I'm still getting the crashes, almost always when the game finishes loading after logging in, but if I do get past the loading screen then it crashes upon moving to and loading a different area.

Any assistance with this issue would be greatly appreciated, because I would very much like to play.

Also, forgot to post the system information thing from the launcher:

Good afternoon and thank you for posting on the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

The error message you provided lists the Nvidia drivers. When you updated them, did you do a clean install of them?

You may also want to try a clean boot if you haven't already. Simply open the task manager and select the 'Start up' tab. Disable everything here and restart the PC. This will make sure that no background processes are interfering with the game.

Make sure any overlays that may be open are disabled.

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
