Arma 2 OA has stopped responding...

So I usually launch DayZ by using the "Launch Arma 2 OA beta patch" shortcut. When I first start my computer, I can do this no problem. However, after my computer has been running for an hour or so and I go to launch DayZ again, it crashes on startup and the only way I can get DayZ to launch again is by restarting my computer.

It's beginning to get extremely annoying. I can launch Arma 2 OA through steam no problem, but just not via the beta patch which runs DayZ for me.

This wont 'fix' anything, but have you tried DayZ Commander? If that works at least you can play DayZ without restarting, and its much better than the default ArmA 2 server list thing MUCH better.

Sounds more of a system issue, rather than either Six or Commander. You run regular virus/malware/spyware scans, empty your recycling and shut-down "background applications".

What sort of computer you have dar, Wully? Newer than olde? If you're running Win7 O/S, right click & select properties on "My Computer" on desktop and check out "the Windows Experience Index"

Hardware Information may be useful.

Messa round with Launch option perameters :lol:

I reformatted a few days ago after installing a new cpu/mobo/ram package. Everything went fine though, but I was also having the issue before the installation. As for running through DayZ commander, my server isn't on DayZ commander and to be perfectly honest, I actually prefer the in game server list.

My set up at the moment, AMD FX 8120 3.1 black edition, 16gb ddr3 crucial memory, asus mobo, gtx 550ti. I don't understand why it launches at first, but then after a few hours fails to launch if I want to play it again.

Still getting this, getting on my nerves. Can't wait for the standalone so I can get rid of this pos mod.

LOL... Sounds like you're really not sure what to do. When the beta installed it installed 2 .exe files. One for the beta Arma2, and another for CO. Neither runs Dayz and should not run Dayz. You probably forgot that you modified either the *CO.com file or copy and pasted the beta CO.exe and modified the start paramenters.
