olaiternatum 0 Posted July 8, 2012 I recently purchased both, Arma 2 and Arma 2:Operation Arrowhead on Steam. I ran both of them and BOTH crashed, for ARMA 2 it crashed on the little boxes with the ticks in. On Arma 2:OA it crashed on the loading screen, the "please wait" screen.When ARMA 2 is launched it just displays a normal windows box saying "ARMA 2 has stopped working"For ARMA 2:Operation Arrowhead a box comes up saying "Bad Serial key Given on Setup"I'm confused because I don't know why this is happening and I hope one of you can help me :)?

olaiternatum 0 Posted July 8, 2012 Moved to trouble shooting.Ok, thank you? I just assumed because I would've thought that newcomers suited this a bit more but I didn't actually know so yeah... And do you have any ideas on how to fix it not how to move my post somewhere else -.-? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vengeance2449 0 Posted July 9, 2012 You have to run ARMA 2 and ARMA 2 OA both first as administrator before starting up DayZ. Hope it helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
