Random crashing since 7.1

My game either gets the nvgpucomp64.dll, directX errors or (more comon after the update) freezes then crashes to desktop. I have attached my system info below:

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

Please try the following:
- If your drivers are up to date, try reinstalling the drivers for your graphics card and sound drivers (if applicable). We recommend doing a clean install to remove any possible corrupted files.
- Please try adjusting/lowering the resolution.
- Please try running the game as an administrator.
- Perform a clean boot by opening the task manager and select the 'Start up' Tab. Disable everything.
- If FINAL FANTASY XIV is installed on the default drive, please try installing on a different drive if possible.
- 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.
- Reinstall game.

It appears that you may be using the Windows cloud program 'OneDrive' in the background, please try closing this program as it may cause interference while trying to sync your files.

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

I reinstalled graphic drivers, and reinstalled the game. One drive has been uninstalled for a long time so Idk why its running in the background as you said. Hopefully this fixes the issue

I got a nvgpucomp64.dll error; what should I do now? I am going to try disabling fullscreen optimizations with the hope it works for me and report back

Hello. Try following:

1. download Hwinfo Portable: https://www.hwinfo.com/download/
2. start it with "Sensors only"
3. Create a log. There are buttons in the bottom of the window.
4. play so for 20 minutes or until the game crashes.
5. upload the log somewhere so i can look into it. You can also zip it if it gets too big.


Cheers
