      I use latest Windower 4.0 (not 4.1) on Windows Vista (32 bit, Ultimate)

       

      POL always crashes when ffximain.dll started. (transition POL to FFXI)

       

      Could you please help on this? I have a crash dump. (about 19 MB)

      Appreciate to tell me where I upload it.

       

      Please let me know if I have to report to bug tracker.

        Same result using Windower 4.1 .

        I'll check without anti virus software.

          Same result (crashed) without following anti virus software:

           - Avast anti virus

           - Windows defender

           

          also FFXI starts properly without windower and any third party programs.

          It seems to be driver related and happens to Win8 plus the latest NVIDIA drivers. There's a thread on our issue tracker detailing it a bit more, some people have fixed it by downgrading to a certain driver, can check that out if you want.
