I have a crashing issue that can be reproduced 100%, at least on my system.

I am trying to complete the Quest "You have chosen Regicide" while escorting Kuplo Kopp I have no issues until I get the to the point where the Malboro and 2x seedlings spawn. Once i kill the enemies and they despawn my game will immediately lock my system occasionally creating a BSOD, but most of the time it freezes completely before one can be generated. I have done it about 6x now, it doesn't seem to make a difference if I do the quest immediately upon logging in or wait a bit.

I have looked through the MEMORY.dmp that is created when it BSOD and the process FFXIV.exe is listed as the culprit.

I run the game via Steam and have re-installed it a couple times. every fix I can think of I have tried. even going as far as a reformat of my hard drive and re-install of Windows 8. any advice would be appreciated
