I have the weirdest issue with FFXIV...BSOD..ONLY with FFXIV

[Thukoolo]

Good morning! Thank you for posting in the Final Fantasy XIV Technical Support Forums.

The error you are describing may occur when the system shuts down unexpectedly or improperly. We suggest to perform a clean boot by opening the task manager and selecting the 'Start up' Tab. Then, disable everything located under that tab. Additionally, can you submit a Final Fantasy XIV system report? Simply go to the 'Config' option on the Final Fantasy XIV launcher and to the right of 'System Information' click on 'Display'.

Lastly, you mentioned that you experienced this in high volume areas (dungeons, raids, or cinematic trailers), do you experience this issue anywhere else in the game?

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

Hi Thukoolo

I've honestly experienced it everywhere, so far, but in towns. When I'm fighting in the open world, dungeons, raids, the cinematic trailers. I think its completely random. It only happens when I play FFXIV. Not sure why.

I've played other games on ultra settings like Age of Empires IV, Cyberpunk 2077, Kingmaker, Baldur's Gate 3, and some other games. I never get this BSOD. It's only with FFXIV and only on my high end system (my laptop which is not even in the same ballpark as my desktop) plays it no problem.

Very odd.
