Greetings,
Like many others, I have fallen victim to this issue. As I told the nice reddit people:
A couple weeks ago, this error started to pop up out of nowhere. No patch, no update, no hardware change, nothing. The screen would freeze for a couple of seconds, before the error appeared on screen and the game closed, with no impact on anything else my PC was running. It seemed to happen randomly too, in crowded and deserted areas alike. I thought I noticed it happened most often shortly after loading in a new area, but it also sometimes crashed after several minutes of questing in the same place. At worst, it would crash right as it tried to load the character selection screen.
As usual for these errors, I must point out that it only happens with FFXIV, and only on this PC (I've been using my laptop in the meantime). No other game or application have been subjected to this, though admittedly I don't play many resource-intensive games.
I have tried a lot of fixes I found on the Internet or just randomly thought of out of desperation, including but probably not limited to:
- Rebooting the PC
- Updating my graphic drivers
- Doing a clean reinstall of my drivers
- Setting the game to full screen then back to borderless a bunch of times
- Lowering every graphic setting I could find
- Disabling all applications that could maybe have some kind of hidden overlay
- Closing every possible application before running FFXIV
- Physically cleaning the dust out of my PC
- Disabling various settings related to Windows Game Bar and other notifications
- Deleting the Final Fantasy XIV folder in My Games (don't worry, I saved the screenshots)
- Rolling back a few Windows updates
- Reinstalling Windows using the "Reset this PC" option
- Reinstalling FFXIV after the reset (which took quite a few days of downloading with my god-forsaken Internet lemme tell you)
Things I have NOT tried:
- Undervolting my GPU, because I'm not super computer savvy, I have never changed its settings, and the errors it allegedly fixes seem different from mine, but at this point I'd try anything if I knew how to
- Buying the game on PS4 and playing it there
- Praying
- Whatever the right solution is
Since redownloading the game, the error happens every time I load the character selection screen, so I am currently unable to play at all on my desktop.
Please find my system information below.
