Ok, i have scanned through the forum to find a solution to this problem and there is none. First thing first, i have played since beta and although the game crashed occasionally, it was running fine. Everything was humming along then bam the latest update hit. After the update, i crashed every almost every single time i entered battle. To be a little specific, i found myself crashing every time i used macros. It sucks so bad that i have failed 5/6 leves. If i just run around or craft, then there is no problem. I have tried updating my video card driver (yes, i remove the old on before installing the new driver), and change my audio frequency to 44.1 kHz. None worked out as i had hoped. Currently, i am taking a break since there is nothing i can do. My system's spec is below:
CPU = Intel Core i7 Q720 1.60GHz
RAM = 8 GB
DirectX = 11
Video Card = Mobility Radeon HD 5870

If any of u know how to fix this problem, i would really appreciate

The main issue might be the mobility 5870. Laptop GPU's just flat out don't get along with FFXIV, the problem is on their end and it is a known issue, though the newest drives are said to fix it in some cases. Perhaps you have some driver remnants. Heat also might be a contributing factor though, you may want to try blowing out the fan ports with compressed air.

IF you are running with macros check your macros.

Extra spaces in the macros can cause a crash at the moment. There are some other macro errors that can crash you to desktop.
