    "FFXIV Beta has stopped working" (upon start up)

    Hey all, I recently got the Asus G73J laptop and have stumbled upon an issue. Whenever I boot up the FF14 beta, a small, black window appears and soon after I get the message "FFXIV Beta has stopped working". I updated my ATI drivers to 10.7 but I've had no luck.

    Ever since I got this lappy, my video card updates have screwed something up, disabling access to the Cataclyst Control Centre usually. This has been occurring from 10.3 and on.

    Am I doing something wrong? What can I do?

    Thank you.

    Known issue, no solution as far as I know. Most of the time, but not always, the problem comes from having video cards under the minimum requirement.

    I've heard some rumors about updating or going back to an earlier driver for your video card works, but that doesn't work in most cases I've seen.

    Check the beta forums for newer info, I'm going by what I read on the beta forums a month ago.

    Hm, it's an ATI 5870, so I think the requirement is met.

    Do you have access to the CCC?

    Does it boot when you start your computer and sit in your task panel?

    5870 in a laptop? That's pretty crazy.

    ATI Mobility 5870 on this Asus. Basically as fast as a desktop 5770. From Tom's Hardware:

    "http://www.tomshardware.com/review [...] 569-6.html
    Take a look at the hierarchy chard there. The 5870m is not as fast as the desktop version, but mobility cards rarely match the performance of their same-named desktop counterparts. You can see the mobility 5870 is about where a 5770 is. Its still the best mobility card at the moment."

    I don't have access to the CCC, every time I boot my laptop, CCC will autoboot and say "CCC Host application has stopped working".

    What does the Application section of the Event Viewer say about the crash?

    Not sure if this is the right thing, but does this make any sense?"

    its a mobility series, of course its not working.

    try uninstalling and reinstalling the driver from scratch.

    and if not, cash in on your warranty

    Alright, did a little bit more research and it looks like 10.8 is supposed to be a fix for the G74J series.

    I'm having some trouble with the beta too. Its only with FFXIV, no other DX9 games are giving me issues, which leads me to believe its an issue with FFXIV. This is a beta after all.......
