Cannot Play DayZ

[Rockon97 0]

I have Arma 2 Free, and Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead. I followed all the steps in Kodabar's blog, however DayZ will not allow me to play the servers selected. Help!

Here is the video to clear up everything:

verify your game cache for both arma2 and op arrow head, check you DLC i.e. PMC packs and make sure they are running properly that should solve the issue

Try this.

I think I see what's wrong. Open Arma 2 OA and click expansions. A menu will pop up. If you installed that addons folder correctly, it should say "addons" with an empty circle beside it. Double click it press okay. Attempt to launch DayZ now.

Open ArmA 2 OA, and click expansions. Check if you have Private Mlitary Company (Lite). If you do, and it's not enabled (Green tick box), enable it, and then try again.
