Freeze/Crash & BSOD issues

[Zomba13]

Interesting. Not sure if this has solved anything (as I have had days where I can play with no issue) but I updated my graphics drivers to the latest beta versions and It's been ok for hours today but I just right now tried to teleport to Gridania and I got a crash, but not a system crash, a Visual C++ runtime error. Not sure if unrelated or because I changed my drivers but thought I'd mention it. I will be monitoring the game over the next few days as I fully expect the system crashes to come back but if by some miracle they are gone (or replaced with this runtime error) then it's a step in the right direction.

I am having problems as well with my new rig, running a Nividia GTX 670 on the 320.49 driver. I've used BETA, and an earlier driver as well, took the settings to the lowest graphic settings (gross btw), windowed, full screen, doesn't matter. The crashes however are random, and so far the game will always come back to the screen and run 60 fps only in the lowest graphics settings, but the sound ceases to work. The game isn't the only thing, it is my whole system, itunes, youtube vids, nothings. So this forces me to restart my computer to get sound back, although I could continue to play.

I also have this issue, on top of shimmering textures/shadows/light/brightness (and I've tried everything to make things work), lag and latency issues. Here's my system and benchmark information:

I got to play for 2+ hours oday with no crashing. The only fixes I tried were the PhysX run off CPU and the whole Display Driver Uninstaller. Once I get into a longer gaming sessions I hope that it truly is fixed!

kind of annoyed that i built a brand new computer from scratch and this problem occurs. can't change my video card to see if thats the problem because the company won't exchange it just because it doesnt work for 1 specific game

Same here man, finished my build 4 days ago and this is the only game that doesn't work properly. luckily I'm not having any BSODs but the FPS is dreadful even though I scored 11.5k on the benchmark.

Same here, bought a whole new rig a month ago and the only game I want to play atm is unplayable.

Just curious, did you happen to have a second GPU in your build? Like an integrated video? Are you sure the game using the better GPU?

100% using the gfx card. I know that is usually a problem with laptops for some reason,but everything is setup correctly for my rig.

Same over here. Nvidia GTX 650 Ti Boost brand new out of the box. Bought it specifically for FF14. Tried everything under the sun. Reformat, tried old drivers, new drviers, beta drivers, BiOs updates, windows updates, memory test, temp test. Nothing doin. Runs TOR and GW2 just fine. LoL for five hours(I know not that demanding on a machine). Basically I'm thinking it's a game/graphics card compatibility issue. The moderator said the dev team is working on it, hope it gets fixed soon.
