Must be a server side issue then..

My friends are already on the server waiting for me...

[Super low FPS and 1% gpu usage]

Please search the fourms before posting, there are many posts related to this, as for your question it's a server issue I believe, try re logging and/or restarting the game...

Sorry, I have tried that several times though.

[Super low FPS and 1% gpu usage]

I used to get over 60fps while playing DayZ, but recently I only get 6-10fps and the game is only using 1% of my gpu power. I have updated to the most recent patch, could this be the problem?

Yes there is I think you can create a new profile without deleting your old one, just click on game profile on the main menu and then click on 'new'.

I've tried that and I've still spawned in with my gear

It's not possible without a second copy of the game and second pc.

What if I just installed the game on a second PC?

[How to start a new character without losing my old one?]

Me and my friend usually play DayZ together, but that is usually during the night time, and we log out together so we can continue without having to run very far. I was wondering if there is any way to have an additional character so that I could run around electro and just mess around with no fear of loosing my gear. I've already tried making a different profile and that didn't work...
