arma 2 has stopped responding

[iceman0601 0]

Hi guys.

 

I have a problem i cant solve and i need your help.

This started to happen to me a couple days ago. Every time i join any server (either dayz or epoch) about 20-30 seconds into the game my arma stops working. No matter what i try it wont  work. I  made a fresh install of both arma and dayz. Updated everthing through day z commander. Nothing works. Ive tried apsolutely everything. I even deleted the arma 2 and arma 2 OA folders inside local roaming folder and probably 10 different solutions i found on google. My drivers are up to date,everything is up to date. i Can play other games with no problem whatsoever. my specs are:

 

Windows 8.1

 

intel i5 4440 CPu @ 3.10 GHz

 8 GB ram

AMD radeon saphire R9 200

Did you change anything prior to that? Any Antivirus's running? If so, try turning them off and try again. If that still doesn't work, send me a PM with your ARMA2OA.RPT located here:

You're not alone. I'm not sure what's causing it, but a lot of people have been getting this issue.

I know the OP is warning nvidia owners, but it seems to be affecting some ATI users too. I have the same issue on an nvidia 770. I've cleared my drivers and tried the older one's, which didn't work. I've just done a fresh windows install and that hasn't fixed it either.

I think the last day I played successfully was Friday. Something has changed but I can't put my finger on what. I did a few windows updates, and installed the latest Nvidia driver before the problems started. It must be one of those.

What you have posted there is regarding the Standalone, though. This is about ARMA 2 and the Mod.

[jbec-john 33]

It seems to be affecting anything using an arma engine. Standalone, mod, even arma 3. I've found multiple threads on the various forums describing the same issue. And all started over the last few days. Maybe it's a battleye thing.

Could you please send me the last 20 lines of your .RPT file right after the crash?

Thanks, this should be fixed now. Could you please confirm?

[jbec-john 33]

Seems to be working fine for me now. I'm not the OP though.
