I have had many many many crashes including BSOD's and sadly, it is FFXIV.

I have a Intel 3770k with an ati 7800 HD. There is no hardware issue I have done full testing, burn in, etc, played with settings, and played other games extensivly including running 3d MArk for 12 hours straight....on a friggen hot day no issue what so ever, my CPU temp is within normal range, as is my video card etc. SSD drive is fine, no issues there.

The hanging, and the best part the crashes and BSOD's have only occured since FFXIV and only got worse since 2.2. now here's the thing, Last night, played 5 hours no problems, tonight played for 3 and then 3 crashes in quick succession. The first time it let me in, the second time I had to do a full restart for FFXIV to not give an error about version checking.
