Stuttering lag every view seconds

[Fated Legacy 0]

Just tried playing Dayz again today after a long break, and it seems there was some issue with the latest patch. Never had a problem before, but now i'm have this constant stuttering lag, and it's really bad when I try to move. Everything lags as well, zombies, other players. Tried 5 different servers, same thing on all of them. As you can seem from my comp specs below, my computer is not/should not be the issue.

Intel Core i7 2600k @3.4GHz

16GB RAM

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 Ti

50 mbps internet connection

The only thing I can think of that is different is that i'm running Windows 8 now.

Edit: And i can't believe i spelt few as view in the topic title. Doh /facepalm.

Didnt fix it :/

Hard drive will give you that effect as well.

You could try a ramdisk - see if that fixes it.

Or go SSD =)

HDD shouldn't be the issue either, I built this comp myself like 7 months ago. Never had any problems with it.

I fixed this myself earlier today by going to ArmA 2 OA and ArmA 2's .exe files and set them both to run in Windows 7 compatibility mode.

Then, I went to my documents folder, and opened the ArmA 2 folder where ArmA2.cfg and ArmA2OA.cfg are, and changed these values:

GPU_MaxFramesAhead

GPU_DetectedFramesAhead

to be =1

I think that just setting the win7 compatibility mode will work, but I did both before trying just one or the other. I now have absolutely no problems playing, even in maxed out settings.

I really hope this works for you.
