Sounds like your dll might need to be replaced, Google BattlEye goto their sight and download client and server dll then replace them in your Arma 2 directory.

Have you tried manually updating BattlEye? To do this:

1. Go to BattlEye

2. Open up your download directory where you saved the .dll file

3. Copy the .dll

4. Paste the .dll file into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2\BattlEye and overwrite the one that is in there.

5. Paste the .dll file into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\BattlEye and overwrite the one that's in there too.

6. Load into game, but wait at the lobby until you see " BattlEye Client: Server Computed GUID: * Insert lots of numbers and letters here * " In the bottom left hand corner

7. Press Ok and just wait.

If it's still not working.

1. Delete the BEClient.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2\BattlEye and C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\BattlEye

2. Try to load ingame ( You'll get a error saying something about BattlEye not starting ) Click OK and exit the game.

3. Go to BattlEye

2. Open up your download directory where you saved the .dll file

3. Copy the .dll

4. Paste the .dll file into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2\BattlEye.

5. Paste the .dll file into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\arma 2 operation arrowhead\Expansion\BattlEye.

6. Load into game, but wait at the lobby until you see " BattlEye Client: Server Computed GUID: * Insert lots of numbers and letters here * " In the bottom left hand corner

7. Press Ok and just wait.
