favus 31 Posted July 23, 2015 I have reinstalled Battle-eye from their site, I have set the folder to have full security, I have no firewall and no antivirals blocking ANYTHING. I read through all the other trouble shooting problems I have seen - but I am still getting this error (even after a re-install) this has only been an issue since the experimental update today! (there is no Battle-eye anything on my C drive or in my profile - I believe this was legacy anyway) Failed to initialize BattlEye Service: Driver Load Error (577). Not played for ages and NEED to have a go on the new experimental, anyone help me out here? I am using Windows 10 - fairly new install - Dayz was working earlier Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
favus 31 Posted July 23, 2015 I also tried using the Administrator profile on my PC and running it from that, does the same thing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

favus 31 Posted July 24, 2015 Arma III team helped me fix this - on Twitter! so big up to them :D It was because I was running an old version of Windows 10 - Winver informed me i was NOT running the latest version (even though windows update told me that I was) I updated it to the latest version - and it all works fine now on Experimental, So anyone having a simiular problem, that's what you need to check - I am now running the release version of Windows 10 so it should only affect people who were using the tech preview version of Windows 10 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
