Attempted Solutions:

Updated Drivers: Everything's updated, so no luck

Reinstalled FF14: Spent a while waiting for everything to patch, feeling optimistic, only to have my hopes dashed spectacularly by the inevitable crash

Checked the temperature: Everything's working fine according to the HWMonitor

Lowering graphics options to laptop quality: Hurt my eyes, but didn't solve anything

Ran back to Uldah to see if maybe it had to do with the location: Uldah hates me as well

Double checked to see if my graphics card driver was the newest it could possibly be: ...yes. Yes it is.

Rolled back graphic card driver: Went back to June 2013, still crashed pretty quickly


Current Status
Somehow managed to beat Satasha, feeling like maybe the latest Windows update had miraculously solved my problems, only to have everything begin crashing once again yesterday.
Today, just one crash after another, with little chance of even being able to communicate, let alone merrily jump up and down while waiting for my inevitable doom.
Current mood: Doom and despair despite the mods trying to cheer me up by tossing my threads into the resolved section.

Summary:

For some inexplicable reason, my computer's been getting killed by FF14 as I try to wander around anywhere After 5-15 minutes the game will suddenly freeze, the sound stutters, the only option available is to hard restart. It won't even give me a BSOD so that I can have some hint as to what happened.

I have tried both Skyrim and Shogun 2 to see if I could somehow replicate this issue, though nothing yet, so far. The computer itself seems rather stable, with temperatures running at acceptable limits.

I've also tried lowering graphics settings, running around with even all shadows disabled, and still the game seems to run quite nicely until it dies.

I have even tried the full reinstall, and still, no luck.

Even more perplexing is that I haven't been having these issues until I reached Gridania (occassional driver issues, it seemed, though nothing too bad), and then even worse at Aleport. I figure on heading back to Uldah to see if, in fact, that region is somehow better off. Update Even Uldah has decided that it now loathed my computer, and decided to stab it with an unknown error.

As of this moment, I simply cannot play Final Fantasy. Sure, I can load up and see the pretty opening movie, but I cannot do anything aside from plonk one enemy, start to feel optimistic, and then watch my world come to a halt while the previously soothing overworld music does its best rendition of really bad techno.
