Caboose187 (DayZ) 3036 Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Are you running out of ram? 4gigs on a 64bit operating system is very low Edited April 17, 2014 by Caboose187 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnDMarshall 23 Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Toast123 - please tell us what Video Card you have ? I have had this same problem but I have an Nvidia Graphics card. My fix was to remove all video drivers from my PC and install drivers that are over 10 months old. If the old drivers work then you may have figured out that new drivers are not always the best to use. Everyone's PC is different and new drivers may not be good for some whereas a new driver may fix an issue for others. Please do try backdating your drivers and see if it solves the problem. EDIT: I forgot to mention my wife also had the same issue with new drivers while playing a different game entirely and rolling back to older drivers from the archives on the Nvidia website fixed her problem too.

Other processes might be taking up the rest of the ram and not be allowing DayZ to start. My suggestion is to get a little more ram and also tell us what video card you are using?
