This sounds great and would love to get involved. Any role would suit me, security, medic (carry plenty) or scavenger/looter. My post history is poor but I am new to this.
I have been watching dayz streams and other media for a long time now and finally have the chance to play it having bought myself a new pc. My problem: I purchased the standalone from Steam. I can launch the game but after about 10 minutes (mostly in the menus) it crashes my pc causing windows to inform me that there has been a problem with the hard drive. When I reboot my pc it takes several attempts for it to recognise the HD. I have had no other problems with other games. I have set all video settings on dayz to low to allow me to tweak to my pc capability. specs: OS: 7 ultimate 64 bit CPU: i5 2500K 3.3 GHz Ram: 8GB DDR3 668 MHz Graphics: 896MB GTX 260 I get about 5 minutes before I get the "this program has stopped running due to a I/O error" Any help is appreciated
