Greetings Zextole,

Thank you for providing these details. I'm sorry to hear that this has been an ongoing issue. Were you able to notice an increase in the amount of crashes that occurred after the hardware update? Additionally, I would like to recommend the following suggestions to see if it may help with the crashing:

- Please try performing a clean boot by opening your Task Manager and selecting the 'Start Up' tab. Once there, disable everything listed and restart the PC.
- Making sure your anti-virus software has the appropriate exceptions for FINAL FANTASY XIV.
- Reverting to an older version of DirectX to see if the issue persists.
- Disabling any VPNs (if you are currently using one on your device).

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