I'm trying to open two windows at one time to dual box, yet every time I go to open the second window it exits me out of the first open window..
I am running it in window mode and run as admin for both .. thoughts?

The dimming caused by the User Account Control popup crashes FFXI. This is why your first character's window is closing. To prevent this, you need to set User Account Control settings to "Do not dim the screen".

Cause: User Access Control (UAC) is a Windows feature that helps prevent programs from running without your consent, but the manner in which it darkens the screen will induce the ffxi renderer to completely crash.
Fix: Control Panel > User Accounts > Change User Account Control settings > change the slider down to "do not dim my desktop".

Thank You! That worked! I told the driver back and works like a charm.

What kind of crash are you experiencing exactly VenomDank? When does it happen?

The first char always logs out I have to keep constantly logging him in so my main wont log out. I found that little trick but if I didnt have a alt I would basiclly be out of exp pt atm.. XD

Are you trying to use 1 game account to play both characters? Or do you have 2 game accounts under 1 forum account (the way it should be)?

I am using 2 different game accounts and 1 forum. I would power level and do missions on them all the time. about to hit 75 on one account 70 on the other.
It just started doing this 2days ago..
Hope there is a solution.
