Looks like it could be an issue with the graphics driver. Take a look here at post #11 and see if this fixes it. Hello everyone, and thank you for the information.

The error you are all experiencing stems from something interfering with DirectX or your graphics drivers. I would suggest doing a clean boot. To do this, open the task manager and find the 'Start Up' tab. Here, disable everything and restart the computer.

You can also try making an exception for your anti-virus/firewall and doing a clean install of your graphic card drivers (if you have not already).

We hope we can be of assistance in helping you enjoy the exciting world of Final Fantasy XIV!
