Just tried a regular game of the original ARMA 2 on a battleye enabled server and the same thing happened. Any ideas??

Okay, so I've had this issue for a number of months but recently spent a good few hours researching and troubleshooting the problem and i've FINALLY identified the trigger, but haven't managed to get any further. I'm desperate for help as i've been wanting to get back into dayz for a good while now. I played dayz for a long time without any problems since earlier last year and stopped playing after around october (1.7.4 i think?) because I got bored. I tried loading it up again a month later but I'd get bad fps drops, below 1 fps. I've never had any issues with framerate before, and it becomes unresponsive during the stuttering so I'd relate it more to freezing/crashing. I looked around and people have had similar problems but were unique to mine. So I painstakingly trawled through google and loading/killing arma:oa over and over, until I figured out where everything starts to go wrong. See image attached (sorry about the quality). Whenever those particular two lines of red text down the bottom come up, the freezing starts until I'm forced to kill the program. They can come up during the lobby, or a few minutes into the game, it doesn't matter it will still do the same thing (freezing every second). My thought process is it must be a battleye problem due to the red text but I've tried everything. I do not use six launcher. I have tried launching it through dayz commander/steam/arma 2 beta. I do not have a firewall and have given arma unlimited access regardless. I have tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling battleye. I have completely deleted every file related to arma 2/OA and re downloaded it all. I have tried patching through dayz commander, and manual patching. I've rolled back as well. I've fiddled with every graphics setting to no avail. I feel like I've tried everything yet I've isolated the problem to (what seems like) battleye and I feel so close. Help me get back into this game! Thank you for your time. EDIT: The game works COMPLETELY FINE until the text comes up, usually only get about 2 minutes of playtime though :(

um, is it really though?

Had plenty of kills like these. I swear AS50/M4SD RF/NVG loots are as common as farmboy kills nowadays. They're the most common duped items (and seeing how easy it is for people to dupe things, just about every tent anywhere has them.)
