Ive read this post and see that a solution was reinstall windows 7 but this was also with a pre-installed version of the game, cant even get any files to download yet.

If anyone has any other ideas it would be greatly appreciated.

Have you tried just installing directx directly from Microsoft and not using the launcher that FFXIV fires off?

What I would do:
1) Run the installer above. (use reinstall or repair/check options if offered)
2) Restart PC
3) Try FFXIV install
