We'll talk about how I got here in the long version, but here's how to disable audio enhancements: One thing that really helped in my FFXIV-crash safari was disabling audio/sound enhancements for my audio. In the meantime, if you try this and it helps, please comment below so we get some more data points! Many things that helped, but didn't fix it entirely. If that continues to work, then I'll update this post with that information. Hopefully this will solve the issue ongoing, and I'll go turn on a bunch of the things I turned off before. See if there is an option "Show Additional Plans" - if so, click to expand the additional plans.Ĭhange from "Balanced" to "Ultimate Performance".
In the Windows search, type control and select the Control Panel search result. Here's how to adjust your Windows 11 power settings: I didn't realize that the default power settings for a gaming desktop PC would have be tuned down, but enabling the maximum power settings has currently worked and I haven't gotten a crash for a week so far (knock on wood). I've since updated to Windows 11, so my settings instructions are written for Windows 11. Update March 2023: Windows 11 Power Options May Fix It? Exiting FINAL FANTASY FFXIV." crash desktop. (After a few months of this, the error was not unexpected!)Īfter turning off audio enhancements, the error changed to a generic "An unexpected error has occurred.
Exiting FINAL FANTASY XIV."Īfter some initial tweaking (see longer story below) the crashes were sometimes the fatal DirectX error, and sometimes this much more helpful "An unexpected error has occurred." with a stack trace. The error originally presented itself as a frequent A fatal DirectX error has occurred.(11000002)Īlso, is anyone else bothered by the lack of a space after the period in this error message? "An unexpected error has occurred. "A fatal DirectX error has occurred.(11000002)" This post has been updated several times, as I've discovered more settings to tweak that improved the behavior. After that, I'll go for the long story, because I don't actually know if it's a combination of some other tweaks I did that fixed the error. I'm going to start with the errors I experienced, then list some things that helped.
This post is dedicated to the years I spent mutating and mostly ridding myself of the FFXIV errors and crashes on my Windows 10/11 PC. However, what I didn't expect was to run into a problem where FFXIV intermittently crashes on my fancy new designed-for-gaming PC. As expected, it was like playing an entirely different game, with better graphics, better frame-rate, and no annoying reboot to Windows in between. A couple of years ago, I bought a new gaming PC (a super duper MSI gaming desktop) after years of playing Final Fantasy XIV on Windows via bootcamp on my Mac.
