Ever since the Dawntrail patch, I've been suffering from a consistent freezing issue which only seem to plague FFXIV.
Once it starts happening, which it happens at random, my game client (and only my game client) completely freezes up for about 20-40 seconds at a time. Every 5-10 minutes or so, it'll freeze again for the same duration. During this, I apparently get the disconnecting symbol/Pokeball. The only way to temporarily fix this is to shut down and start my PC back up.
I've already tried changing in-game graphics settings, including the new ones, but to no avail. My PC's internal temperatures are normal when these freezes occur as well, and I have done a clean install of the newest NVIDIA drivers. In addition, I tried disabling fullscreen optimization on my ffxiv_dx11 and disabling the Steam overlay (I play with the Steam version).
The one time it did crash, which is when I had tried changing from either borderless window to fullscreen (or vice versa, I forget which), I got the following error codes:
nvwgf2umx.ddl+2D326B
nvwgf2umx.ddl+57785F
nvwgf2umx.ddl+5777BF
nvwgf2umx.ddl+56C18D
nvwgf2umx.ddl+9D760A
nvwgf2umx.ddl+EEE5FE
KERNEL32.DLL+17344
ntdll.dll+4CC91
I was going to try reinstalling the game, but before I do that, I wanted to see if there was anything else I should try first, or if this info could otherwise narrow down what's going wrong. None of my other games are having this issue, nor does the rest of my computer freeze when the game does.
