Have any changes happened to the device before the issue began? We would also like to recommend several other troubleshooting steps:

1) Disable any additional programs that could cause interference with the game itself including chat programs. Also, remove any custom configurations made using graphics driver-level programs.
2) Turn off Fullscreen Optimizations. Find the executable file for the game (normally found in the install folder), right-click it and select 'Properties'. Under the 'Compatibility' tab, check the box labeled 'Disable Fullscreen Optimizations', then click 'Apply'.
3) Remove any unnecessary USB or audio devices (controllers, headphones, flash drives etc.)
4) Install Windows, Steam and FINAL FANTASY XIV on the same drive (preferably the C:/ drive, if possible)
5) Perform a clean boot by opening the task manager and select the 'Start up' Tab. Disable everything

Thank you for visiting the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.
No changes have been made to my PC in the time since I tried to redownload the game and play it. I have made all changes and attempted to fix the issue as you suggested, but still receive the exact same issue every time I try to launch the DX11 version.

Fix your game, NOW, or refund me.
