Hello,

I made a post awhile back stating that the game would randomly crash.. It doesn't do this on any other game I play for hours, these games that I play are more resource intense then ffxiv. I have the latest nVidia drivers, this is also a semi fresh install of Windows 8.1 Pro.. I also watched my temps and they're not going above 60...

I also turned off EVGA Precision X to see if that was causing the issue, nope.

Someone told me to turn on error reporting to see whats going on, and I was able to get this:

(I know nvd3dum.dll is related to drivers, graphic card, etc)
