Tried all of the above, verified the cache started up arma 2 and arrowhead now trying to join servers I get this...

Ok im going to try turning it off now, ill keep you posted on how I get on.

I think I have the one... Faulting application name: svchost.exe_WinDefend, version: 6.1.7600.16385, time stamp: 0x4a5bc3c1 Faulting module name: mpengine.dll, version: 1.1.6402.0, time stamp: 0x4cda2e1d Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x000000000000c95b Faulting process id: 0xf94 Faulting application start time: 0x01cdef9685a8bfaf Faulting application path: C:\Windows\System32\svchost.exe Faulting module path: C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows Defender\Definition Updates\{D2B0B133-42ED-44D3-809A-46EBB62BA863}\mpengine.dll Report Id: f08be12a-5b89-11e2-a680-902b343859d8

tried verifying both cache's, loaded up a server this time, got a friend to join same server soon as I spawned I got a crash report again and he said it came up that im losing connection on the game chat, Thanks for responses so far btw.

Windows 7. Ran as administrator, I can now load up the servers but soon as I go to update I get a crash report when an update finishes. Temps are all fine dont have a clue whats going wrong.

Yeah, just got it recently, overclocked i5 3570k @4.4ghz, gtx660ti, z77 motherboard, 8gb ram.

Wondering if anybody would give me a hand, have around an 900 pound budget as I've already purchased gaming mouse keyboard and a monitor. Had a look on pc specialist but are there any other good sites, would anyone kindly run through a build with me?

Regards to cooler, I have the following options... Super quiet triple copper heat pipe intel cooler at £19 Or the corsair H series H40 £39 H60 £59 H80 £69 Any advice? I was thinking the H60

@uchihasilvet Thanks you've been a great help, looked into the whole i5 vs i7, gonna go with the i5. I've decided to go with: I5 2500k P8z77 v lx Kingston 8gb hyperx beast dual 2400 (pc specialist for some reason don't offer corsair) 660 ti 1tb sata III Corsair 650w power supply Saved around 100 quid from my original build. Edit: I'm going to get and ssd added on myself as charging nearly 100 quid for 20gb is a bit ridiculous. Ordered the ssd 64gb you suggested.

Thanks for all the contributions so far guys!

I did do a build myself but unsure wether if I am getting value or wether really it will work fine, this build came in at around 900. (I'm an Xbox guy moving to pc) Intel core i7-3770 3.4ghz 8mb cache Says p8z77 3.0 Sara 6gbs ati crossfire x 16gb Kingston hyper x genesis dual ddr3 2gb and radon hd7850 Memory: 2tb sata III 6gb/s had 7200rpm 64mv cache Power supply: 600w quiet 80 plus quad rail psu Processor cooler: suet quiet 22dba triple cooler heat pipe intel CPU cooler Sound card and everything else was basic I didn't go into this blind as a spur of the moment thing a friend helped me but want to get some more advice on basically wether if its crap or not and any other decent sites. Thanks
