Fatal DirectX Error 11000002

[LastAim]

Well alt+tabbing is still an issue for me. Anyone else. Just bumping it up

I crashed twice today for the first time in months due to this. 1st was at the S-rank Pale Rider, just waiting for people to arrive, 2nd directly afterwards. I was alt tabbed in town and everything just blackscreened, and then xiv died again. None of the 35x series drivers have been stable for me, which is why I'm running slightly older ones.

I have the exact same problem. Sometimes it runs well for hours, other moments it crashes after only 10 minutes in-game. All my other Steam games run perfectly fine..

Like most of here, i also have a GTX 970 (MSI Gaming edition). Seeing so many 970's i think it must game-gpu related.

/edit: in Ul'dah it just crashed 3 times in 15 minutes time total.. ugh the game became unplayable.
/edit ii: im on Windows 10 (latest version) and Nvidia 359.06 drivers.

Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this. I recently upgraded from an AMD HD 6950 to an NVIDIA GTX 970 and the problems seem to have started after that.

There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it as far as I can tell, it's happened 5 minutes into logging in, and it's also happened after keeping the game on for 24+ hours.

Been having this issue quite often as of late. My video card is a Nvidia GeForce GTX 760, and I don't believe it's overclocked as I'm not too savvy about fiddling with my device settings. It seems quite random when it happens too, I can find no rhyme or reason. Heck, last time it happened I was sitting in Sea of Clouds looking at myself and the sky, nothing graphic intensive at all.

One fairly recent change though, as in over the last couple days. Used to be I could just log right back in no problem. Now? It requires a full restart of my computer (Logging out and back in didn't fix it) to log in again.

This is still happening.
JUst crashed while Fate farming in Dravanian Hinterlands.

Same for me as well. The game randomly crashes anywhere though I have seen the most fatal DirectX errors happen in The Goblet area.

Crashes happen one to three times or more a day. I have tried so many things from reinstalling display drivers, different driver versions, changing some settings in the power options and some other things and it changes nothing. This only happens on DirectX 11. Meanwhile every other game in my library plays fine.

May want to look into setting the card to the reference clocks to see if it improves...just to rule that out. So many are overclocked out the box. Base clocks are 1.75GHz on the memory (7Ghz effective) and 1050 base on the core (boost 1178).

Also may be worth looking at your PSU if you didn't upgrade that when upgrading the card or it has a lot of age on it. The reference design consumes right at 150w on it's own under normal conditions--can get up near 200W depending on configuration and load. Stack on the 45-95W your CPU may be eating (maybe more depending on model and clock), fans, drives, memory, everything else on the motherboard and USB devices and such...and you could easily be in the 400+ range before you know it. Even nvidia recommends a minimum of 500W of reliable power for the system.

It's not a hardware issue, as this only happens on DirectX 11. Meanwhile every other game in my library plays fine.

The thing is, AMD cards seem to have this problem as well:

SE really should look into this matter.

Same here, Salt, except I have an nvidia card. As for today, I've gotten two fatal DirectX errors in Camp Bronzelake.

EDIT: FFXIV crashed a third time today at Camp Bronzelake. I don't know what is causing this.
