Hi. The one and so far only server that I can play on regularly without problem is called ''[Public/Veteran) - 1 DayZ (Public/Veteran) 1 - www.banzore.com'' One that doesn't work was: ''DayZ NL 2-14 (Public/Veteran) 113925 - Hosted by Gameservers.com'' The rest of the servers I've joined left me to a freeze + crash. I do have to add that during my freezes the audio is still running and I can even move my mouse when I'm looking at my inventory. Just my screen is stuck. When I joined server with 35+ people I froze within 10 seconds, but when I joined a server with 25 people it froze only after give or take 3 minutes. In both cases, after waiting about 3 minutes the game crashed to desktop and I couldn't use Firefox, Steam etc. anymore. What I did notice was that during my ''test'' in the 35+ people server I regained control about my character ingame for about a millisecond before it froze again and I could see that two other people lost connections to the server. Sorry if I'm a bit too cryptic or give useless information but this is all I can do. I'm not tech savvy at all.

I would prefer to try other solutions first rather than going straight for the most radical solution that doesn't have any guarentees.

It only doesn't run DayZ. Well, it does run sometimes. There's one server that never gives me any trouble, it's kind of weird. Besides I have a ton of other games and they all run just fine.

My drivers are pretty much up to date. There's a new driver for my GPU but my current one is far from outdated. I could try this but updating drivers is one hell of a job. My computer is one year old, I doubt my RAM is broken. No, I'm not running anything custom about the game. It's a one year old computer with nothing but a few games on it and internet files.

Here I am, in need of tech support once again. Since release I've been getting the same problem over and over again, I simply can't play DayZ Standalone without freezing after 1 minute of joining a server. I had another thread about this issue and it looked like it was solved for me, however the problem reappeared the day after and it's gotten even worse. This was my previous thread: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/159860-please-help-me-im-in-desperate-need-of-tech-support-solved/ So I found out that my freezing issue is basically a test of patience for me, however the 2 past days the problem is back again. Let me describe how it goes: 1. Join a server (I have been joining server with 35+ people in it) 2. Freeze within the first minute of joining Now this is old news for me that it always freezes, in my previous thread a user suggested that I would wait and see if the game came back again and yes, in that one case it worked (if I recall correctly I was in a server with about 20-29 people in it for that case) and I got back into the game. However yesterday I wanted to play DayZ again and the usual routine happened but something else happened now, instead of me regaining control within 3 or so minutes my game and Steam both crashed! For some reason, my whole computer goes haywire and I can't run any program that use the internet for connection. (i.e I can't open Firefox anymore but I can open my virus scanner). This already happened twice to me today. To summarize: 1. Join server 2. Freeze 3. Wait about 2.5-3 minutes 4. After 2.5-3 minutes I crash to desktop, Steam closes itself and all internet applications stop working I'm more than willing to provide any information about the problem you might need. I just really want to play the game for once. My specs are: Intel i5 @ 3.4 GHz (4 CPUs) 8 GB RAM HD 7850 1GB Full specs can be found here in the attached Dxdiag file: http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=3206

I've checked the list of errors but they are only there because I kept killing the process. The problem is more or less solved for me, I just need to have more patience. Thanks for the amazing help and sorry for wasting your time because DayZ is working just fine.

Usually I kill the process after about 30 seconds. I'll go into a game and try again if it goes away after a longer period of waiting. EDIT: Wow... I feel stupid now. After about 2 of waiting the game started again. Thanks for all the help everyone! Sorry for taking up your time.

Thank you all for responding. My connection to a London server: http://www.pingtest.net/result/91083028.png My connection to a server in Brooklyn, New York: http://www.pingtest.net/result/91083072.png My power supply is more than fine. I have a ''be quiet! Pure Power L8 630W'' I also forgot to mention that when I freeze my audio still works (I hear hear birds chirping etc.), but my video has frozen.

DayZ is currently unplayable for me. I freeze on about 90% of the servers I join. This usually happens within the first 5 minutes of spawning. If I get lucky with a server and don't freeze I can play for as long as I want. I have validated the cache already, deleted my profiles in Document, reinstalled the whole game. I did everything within my power. Please for god's sake help me, I just want to play this game normally. I want to join any server I want. I want to just play the game for once without freezing in the first 5 minutes. Please god help me. I already posted in the bug tracker, but I had no response. Here is my report: http://feedback.dayzgame.com/view.php?id=3206 Please. Please help me.

I keep freezing when I play the game. I think it depends on the server I play on. My specs are: i5-3750k 4 cores @ 3.4GHz 8GB RAM HD 7850 1 GB I have everything set to Normal.
