Hi, I've suddenly started experiencing a technical issue that does not seem to be a game bug but something specific only to me.

My sound will suddenly stop, if I am on a chocobo the chocobo will disappear. If I dismount and remount the chocobo will still not show up. The NPC enemies will all disappear and I will be able to move only a short distance before hitting a wall. After a few minutes, the game crashes to the desktop but it is NOT a 90K.

Throughout all this, I can keep chatting with people. I see shout and FC chat and can communicate back and forth. It is my gameplay that suddenly changes.

Earlier after one of these episodes when I would log into Southern Thanalan I would be zoomed into a piece of landscape - water, rocks, grass - and nothing would work. My UI looked normal, but I could not pull up any menus or UI windows. I would crash after one or two minutes. Eventually I was able to get Return to work and ended up in Ul'dah, unstuck.

However I am still having the same issue where randomly certain aspects of the game stop working and then I crash. But I am still on the server, because I can talk to people. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
