Good morning and thank you for the reply.

If you have not done so already, could you try the following:

To change compatibility mode, right click on the exe file (Default location: C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\Final Fantasy XIV - A Realm Reborn\boot\ffxivboot.exe), right click it and select ‘Properties.’ Select the ‘Compatibility’ tab and select Windows 7.

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.
