Good morning and thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

Have any updates or changes been made to the PC that coincide with this? What have you tried so far to alleviate the problem? Where in game does the crash occur?

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums

i have reinstalled the game several times but the problem still persist. it can occur while afk, or while running dungeon. no major change done.

viewing the reliability history in windows. the issue seems to be from desktop window manager crash or stopped working.

Good morning and thank you for the reply.

Are there any programs or overlays being run at the same time as the game? Could you try doing a clean boot? Open the task manager and select the 'Start up' Tab. Disable everything here and restart the PC.

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

i format my harddisk and install windows 10, relevant drivers and game. but the problem still persist.

Good afternoon and thank you for the reply.

Could you provide the exact error message in your next reply?
