Frustrating. I definitely don't have the technical know-how to solve this mystery...but I'm sure as heck hoping those at Square-Enix can tackle it eventually. :-/

I've had the best luck running Nvidia's 326.80 drivers. With those, I just get a crash to desktop. With the latest Nvidia drivers that changes to a BSOD. The change in behaviour suggests that it could be driver related but I really know zilch about this stuff. At this point I'm with most others here in thinking that it's an issue that will take some adjustment on SE's end to fix.
