Frequently caused my memory leaks and/or driver issues. Double check your video drivers, etc. are up to date.

The beauty of buying this game is that while many of the memory leaks are fixed and it is much more stable, that doesn't do you any good unless you can launch it and update it. SE really needs to offer a downloadable version of the latest client, or at the very least the most recent launcher.

Please post your system information for us.

You can get this information by going to your start menu - programs - FFXIV - FFXIV config. Then hit the System button, and the Copy to Clipboard button at the bottom of that page.

The majority of FFXIV crashes upon game launch are due an insufficient video card, or outdated video drivers.

Drivers from the future FTW.

Your system does meet minimum requirements, and appears to have the latest drivers. But you should uninstall your video drivers, run driversweeper, then install the latest ones for good measure.

Please describe your problem in more accurate detail. Where exactly does the game crash? At what stage in the process? The generic APPCRASH information you posted doesn't really tell us anything.

thx for the help, was aproblem with the drivers cleared them up an it worked like a charm.
them problem 2 came along update kept stucking at 95%
did a clean install for windows same problem,did a new instal but instead of 64 i did a 32 bit version
and guess what game updated and i could finally log in :)

The game should have no problem running on a 64 bit version of Windows,
Maybe you had a faulty driver, that caused XIV not to work, would be worth looking into, since you just reinstalled.
I would try once more with a 64 bit installation, and see if XIV did not run if you had all up to date drivers installed.

Ah, that makes sense.

Crazy Americans. :D

I'm having the same problem and I suspect it's my video drivers as well. How do I find updates for them or know which drivers specifically to look for?

First you have to figure out what video card you have... follow the instructions in the 3rd post of this thread.

Then you go to the appropriate website to download drivers. AMD or Nvidia.

Graphic Device(s) ATI Radeon HD 5700 Series

There's your video card. Hit up the AMD website and download the latest drivers for an ATI Radeon 5700. I believe they are called "Catalyst" drivers or some such for ATI cards. Make sure to get the x64bit version.

I didn't read everything so it might have been posted, but try closing other apps, including things running in the tray. I've found that having afterburner and mumble running at the same time on my pc will cause ffxivboot to crash on startup.

hello I want to know if my game bug because of my configuration

Your CPU is barely cutting it, you have below required memory installed, and the video card is way below the minimum requirements.

http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com...vi/envi01.html

Going off what Loth said, your video driver is also 7 years old.

There may be more recent drivers.. but most likely your video card is not capable of running FFXIV. Your other components aren't the immediate issue.. but they aren't great either.

If you want to play FFXIV on the PC, you'll probably want to invest in a new desktop. Or wait for the Ps3 version.
