Now I get random crashes in FFXIV (DirectX device lost, crash from fullscreen), but for some reason, only when I'm in town. So far, many crashes in Ul'dah, especially at the well before the inn, only one crash so far in Limsa (but I'm not often in Limsa and in Gridania). Newest NV beta driver (306.02), since this is the only driver supporting the 660 Ti.
I wonder if the reason for the crashes are certain equipment pieces of other players passing by. When it happens, it often happens a few times in a row.
