I was having a problem with XIV, so I uninstalled it and tried to install it again. I have windows 32bit, and it worked fine despite the fact that my sound was glitching up. I figured that by reinstalling it it would fix it. Now, when I put the disk in, it says that I need the Windows Vista 2nd update or something. I don't want to go out and buy Vista when I have windows and it worked before. Is there anything that I can do? please help!
Hmm.. you know, you're not the first person to have this problem. But I don't remember if we ever came to a solution.
Make sure that FFXIV was completely uninstalled from your system, by running a registry cleaner such as Ccleaner.
You may also try moving your program files (x86) folder to a different drive.. but that's a shot in the dark
You say you have windows 32-bit.. <.< is that XP or 7?
7. But it keeps asking me for a Windows Vista Service Pack 2 after I choose the Language option. I have Windows 7 32-bit. sadly i have a mac, but I have windows running on it via bootcamp. Ive never encountered this problem when i first installed it, so I have no idea why this is happening.
Would I happen to need DirectX?
Yeah, but you should already have it. Check that you have the most recent version.
