I have just build a new PC, and after installing and updating FFXIV:ARR, the game crashes with an access violation( error C00000005 ) from ntdll.dll. This crash mostly occurs as the game transitions from the launcher to the actual game, but sometimes I can get as far as character selection before it will crash.

Things I have already done:
Updated all drivers to latest.
Updated BIOS to latest.
Updated Windows completely.
Tested Memory to make sure it is all functional. (It passed the test).
Started with a Minimal set of items (keyboard, mouse, ram, video card, hdd).
Run in compatibility mode (tried win 98, xp sp3, windows 7)
Run as administrator (along side the compatibility checks too).
Disabled firewall.
Ran a mimimal set of programs (made sure nothing but ffxiv was running, outside of other items windows needed to run).

Things I havent tried that I can think of:
Reinstall windows (it's a fresh install so it seems pointless)
Reinstall ffxiv:arr

System/OS Specs:
Windows 8 Pro x64
16 GB RAM
ASUS z87-c motherboard
evga gtx 770 (currently using 326.80 drivers)
intel i5 4670k processor

Any other ideas would be wonderful, as this is all I can think of doing.
