"A2OA has stopped responding" - Crashing to desktop.

[CoffeineCat 1]

I use DayZ Commander, with build 98866 and version 1.7.3 of DayZ. Bought Arma through steam.

When I join any random server and play between 5 - 30 minutes, the game crashes with the message "A2OA has stopped responding".

I've been searching the web, far and wide, for a solution to this problem, but I've yet to find any. I've tried downloading and replacing the latest .dll's from battleeye, and putting them in -steamapps > arma 2-, -steamapps > arma 2 oa-, AND in -appdata > local > arma 2 oa-. Did not work, so I reinstalled everything related to arma. Did not work, so I tried the dll's again. Did not work. I read that the problem was related to the playerprofile, so I tried to create a new one. Did not work. I've tried downgrading to 98836 and 98809, but it did not work.

I'm know it's a curse that comes with BattlEye, as I've seen plenty of people getting kicked by BattlEye the few minutes of playtime i get.

Also worth noting:

I had four friends bring their computers to my place. Three of them downloaded Arma 2 at my place (one of them even bought it), and installed it. I went through the trouble to set up a server on my computer and they all joined it. 10 minutes later, A2OA stopped responding, but only on my computer. My friends saw a message that said I was kicked by BattlEye. I joined several times, but with same result, while none of my friends got kicked. After a couple of hours I restarted the server, but disabled BattlEye. It worked like a charm. No more kicking.

As I've said, I can't find a solution to this problem anywhere. I keep on seeing "Replace the dll's in your BalltEye folder", but I can truly say that it does not work.

ANY help would be appreciated. Anything at all.

By the way, it's quite annoying to check if the problem still exists, as the only way to actually check is to play the game. Last night I played for 31 minutes and almost started crying because i tought it was fixed, then BAM! A2OA has stopped responding. Goddamit.

Hardware related?

Post system specs (X#CPU@?speed, DDR?. amount@?speed, hdd/sdd SATA? size&speed, video graphics model&ram amount) & O/S.

You have "verified cache/game files" from within Steam & right click<run as admin Steam?

Try this, if that doesn't work then it is probably a hardware problem.

Does ARMA 2 launch okay by itself? If it does then try reinstalling DayZ, or maybe using an alternate launcher like PlayWithSix?

If none of these work then try checking this out: http://taw.net/forums/t/4856.aspx

I keep getting "1 files are missing and will be reaquired", for both Arma 2 and OA. If I validate again, I get the same message?

Says I've got to downgrade all the way back to 94700? There must be a reason why the current build is 98866.

...and it should'nt be a hardware problem. I can play the game just fine on a server with BattlEye disabled.

Unless my comp is too weak for BattlEye... :huh:
