Chen (DayZ) 0 Posted December 23, 2012 Ok so I bought the game through Steam. I'm running ARMA 2: OA version 1.62.100296 (not beta). I launch through the Commander. It makes no diference how I launch the game though, because it's been doing this since before I had the Commander. I used to launch through Six Launcher, or Steam itself. This is something that has been happening since I bought ARMA 2: CO, around six months ago. I can play for hours, or for minutes but my game, PC, or video card will just crash. Often times artifacts appear as my screen freezes, and I have to hard restart my computer with a button. Alternatives like my screen turning black have ocurred. Sometimes I can alt-tab out of it but usually I can't. It's not a GPU/CPU heat issue, my drivers are up to date, and the average FPS is 60.Specs:-Intel i5-2500k @ 3.30 GHz-8 GB RAM-2 EVGA GeForce 560's in SLI-1920x1080;60 screenOperating System:-Windows 8 Pro 64-bit-Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#Sleepy 572 Posted December 23, 2012 I have the exact same build, except Overclocked at 4.7GHz, and only one GTX 560 Ti. But even without Overclocking I've never had this issue. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FrankTheDuck 99 Posted December 23, 2012 I've had a similar problem, Just randomly The whole PC locks up, sometimes it might not happen for a week, Sometimes I may have been playing 15 mins. Only in this game also.My buildI7 2600k OC'd at 4.5ghzATi 69708xgb RAM5760x1080 Resolution (Eyefinity)But I've yet to find a solution been happening for maybe 2-3 months now. My GPU drivers ARE out of date, But anyone with ATi experience knows to stick with drivers they find work, instead of update willy nilly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chen (DayZ) 0 Posted January 5, 2013 I still haven't found a solution to this problem, causing me to not even be able to play this game. I've spent hours searching Google and these forums for an answer. Hopefully someone will find a solid fix.does this happen on all the beta patchesYes. Like I said, i used to play this game over 6 months ago and crashing still occuredhave you tried rolling back your driversI don't see why i should have to, seeing as this never happened to me in any other 3D game in the past...I got stable game, when I roll back beta patch to 99515 from 100296.But then i wouldn't be able to play on my favorite server.
