Fatal DirectX Error 11000002

[Tanama]

Well, ladies and gentlemen, a fix might be upon us! Today Nivdia released the new drivers (Nvidia GeForce/Ion 361.43 WHQL). I have installed them and just ran FFXIV for 4 hours without a single crash! With the previous drivers this was impossible. Maybe its just luck, but maybe these new drivers fixed our problem!

I'll give it a shot now. I hope this works!

EDIT: FFXIV encountered yet another Fatal DirectX Error while in Mor Dhona as I was riding back to town from the Tangle. So much for that fix.

I am sorry to hear this. I have played for another 2 hours just now and still no crash. I will keep you all updated here.

The new drivers want me to upgrade to windows 10. Whyyyyyy :/

Yet another Fatal DirectX error just as I strike a tree.

EDIT: This is with the latest nvidia display drivers.

Add me to the list. I had been getting this for maybe a week and none of the proposed setting changes or such fixed it. I initially crashed in FATEs and the Void Ark, though over time I crashed twice in private rooms and several times in dungeons (including Pharos Sirius - Hard). Most times were DirectX errors, though twice my system crashed outright, once with a horrific buzzing noise. This is on Win 10, NVidia 560Ti. This occurred with drivers 359.06 and 361.43. A couple days I uninstalled 361.43 and reinstalled the last one I used, 355.98. I've run that for several days now and so far, knock on wood, no crashes. The problem is, I missed a number of drivers between 355.98 and 359.06, four to be exact, so if it is a driver issue, I have no idea which driver actually broke it.

Hope this helps.

Any new info out there on this issue?
R9 285 and R9 380 still have this issue(since July), can someone confirm R9 390(x) is now fixed?
Is it possible that tonga series gpus will just never work correctly in dx11 with this game? Someone made a comment that tonga has major issues with this gaming engine and unreal engine when it comes to dx11

Has anyone found a solution to this at all? I find it weird that my EVGA GTX 770 works perfectly fine on every single other video game, except this one.

It seems for Nvidia users its a matter of picking through driver releases and finding one that works.
For Amd users with tonga based chips there hasn't really been a solution besides the work around of running in DX9.

I think the bigger issue is that every other video game works perfectly, other than this one.

I also happen to rebuild and reformat my PC specifically for this game only to continue crashing like this. Then I tested my same exact setup using a number of other games and literally played for hours.

To me, sifting through the drivers to find one of the releases that works for me is not a solution.

I do agree those aren't solutions but who knows when a real fix will be around. its been six months on AMD tonga's and Nvidia seems to be back and forth between various drivers as new FF14 patches are being implemented.
