Random crashes make game unplayable

Ever since I got the game, it crashes randomly. No error message or pop up. The game just dies. I reinstalled the game and restored the game data multiple times. This is the only game my computer does this too and I honestly have no idea why. Please help. The crashes happen so frequently it makes this game unplayable.

Good morning! Thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

We apologize for the delay in response to this issue. The error you are describing may occur when DirectX crashes.

Please try the following:

- Try switching to DirectX 9 by selecting the ‘Config’ button on the launcher.
- Update and reinstall the drivers for your graphics card and sound drivers (if applicable).
- Perform a clean boot by opening the task manager and select the 'Start up' Tab. Disable everything.
- Please be sure that Final Fantasy XIV is installed to the C: Drive.
- Please be sure to disable or remove any overlays (Discord, Steam, NVIDIA etc.) as they may interfere with startup.
- Make sure that the Windows OS is fully updated.

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