I cant start Dayz 0.62 or any of the experimental versions of dayz so basically, 3 hours waiting for each download to see which dayz I can play. none.

did you try this already? :

Go to your Steam Library and right-click on <DayZ>.
Go to <Properties>.
Open the >Local Files> Tab.
Click on <Verify Integrity of Game Files>

If you already did this it's not the problem.

You are the Administrator, right?

Turn off any antivirus while you play. see what happens.

You can also reinstall Steam (if you have the passwords the stuff you need)

OR - you can tell steam too reinstall DayZ to a different disk or a different folder (the fastest you have on your PC)

If you have special settings on your GPU software for DayZ, don't forget to update them if you change the DayZ location.

 

If nothing happens (NO messages) except Steam says DayZ is "running".. and you're sure its not ..like.. running minimized .. (had to ask) .. then look in Task Manager and see if DayZ is Really running on your PC.

It's REAL STRANGE that Steam says DayZ is running and you get Nothing appearing on your screen at all?  just the desktop STILL as usual ?? Zero Messages??   even for a second ?

Yep, I will try the antivirus because I know that im admin and I know that it doesn't show up in task manager cuz I was smart enough to check and I reinstalled dayz 2 times already. The antivirus is all thats left.

Antivirus never worked but i will try changing the dayz install location and get back to you with what happens

tried changing it but I am not 100% familiar with all the startup things cuz what I mean by that is, I don't wanna do all this startup location, And all that kind of stuff but I am hoping reinstalling works.
