Freeze/Crash & BSOD issues

[Lauwen]

Any idea on my problem? I'm scared to run the game incase it causes damage due the the random shut off.

I am in the same boat as you and others in the thread. I have tried all sorts of fixes, I even upgraded to a new graphics card! Still the error persists! These memory dump BSODs are awful as they freeze my entire PC and auto restart it. I do not want physical harm to befall my PC - I am a supporter of SE but with this and the 1017 error, my patience is wearing very thin.

I was getting BSOD for quite awhile until I uninstalled EVGA Precision X which I was using to limit my FPS in FF14.

No BSOD after uninstalling that.

Maybe you are using it, not sure, if so, uninstall it.

The problem with uninstalling Precision X is that many people use it for the fan control for optimal cooling of our Nvidia cards. It is also used for the Riva Tuner HUD display in our games, or for our Logitech G keyboards with LCD displays. I am not going to compromise the cooling of my NVidia cards to make FFXIV work, especially when FFXIV puts a heavy load on our GPUs with high graphics enabled.

If uninstalling Precision X does work, that is good information for the FFXIV team so they can work to patch FFXIV, and get it stabilized.

Have you tried MSI Afterburner or various other brands versions of the Rivatuner? It's not crashing for me (right now) with it loaded.

I have only had one crash* with my PS3 previously, up until yesterday when I had 2 with in a couple hours. 1 on the way to the level 38 dungeon in Central Thanalan and the other in the dungeon Cutter's Cry.
*The previous one was right after they initiated the 30 minute afk timer.

Someone may have already said this (don't really have time to go thru all pages) but I had the BSOD issue over and over again as well. First I tried the 326.80 dev driver you are using and still had problems. Since I updated to 326.84 about a month ago though, I have only had 1 BSOD/crash. Hope you find a fix! that problem is VERY annoying

Thank the gods I'm not the only one, but seriously this issues needs to get fixed... I would rather play this one my PC then have to go out and buy a whole new copy for my playstation

It hasn't happened as often to me as others. But I crash and the game freezes often now. Usually when just running forward, after a fate ends or start. Im getting very frustrated. This never was an issue when I first got the game.
