Updated launcher is not recognizing directx on Windows Server 2008 R2

[Scher]

I would also like to chime in to say that I'm experiencing the same issue. I also use Windows Server 2008 R2 and can no longer update after patch 2.3. I have tried updating my drivers, reinstalling DirectX, and updating just about everything that has an update. However, the game still does not recognize DirectX.

Confirming same issue since last night with Windows Home Server 2011 64-Bit. Also tried re-installing FFXIV and Directx as well as running the .exe as Administrator and compatibility mode on Windows 7. No dice.
