Good evening everybody,

so a few weeks ago I had to reinstall Windows 7 on my pc and since then I occasionally crash to the desktop for a couple of seconds. Ater that I automatically switch back into the game and everything works fine until the next "5-seconds-crash".
It usually works like that:

- playing normally, then my screen freezes for ~2 seconds
blackscreen for ~2 seconds
- the game minimizes and I see my desktop with the ingame mouse cursor
- game maximizes again and everything is back to where it was

It didn't really bother me at first since I was still leveling my alts or stuff, but right now we really get into raiding and I happen to stand in a lot of AOEs thanks to this crash.

It also happens only in FFXIV, no other games have this problem.

Anyone got a solution? My graphics card or CPU aren't heating up (both around 40°C at most).

My specs:
GeForce GTX 770 Phantom 2048MB
AMD FX-8150 8-core CPU
8GB RAM
Windows 7 Ultimate
