If it's a corrupted file, they could try the repair option from the launcher.
I've only ever seen this happen with nvidia GPUs, but yes if xiv is giving you directX errors it is most likely your gpu not playing nice in some way with the game.


Also if it seems to happen with loading into a new area then make sure their drives are in ok health with something like HWInfo64 and make sure to validate their game files just in case.
