Stuck on the Loading screen any suggestions?

[Longs 42]

As the title says, is there anything I can do to resolve this on my end? Since the latest patch I can't join any servers :(. I've tried rebooting and leaving it at the loading screen for ages to no avail someone suggested I format and reinstall Windows....fuck that. Seriously tho is there anything anyone can suggest or is it just a waiting game until something is fixed or another patch is released?

Yes, install the latest Beta patch. Current one is 94444

I got it to work. I installed the 94700 beta patch from here: http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

and the experiemental 1.7.2.1 patch from dayz: http://dayzmod.com/forum/index.php?/topic/28806-experimental-1721-test-patch/page__hl__+stuck%20+loading%20+screen#entry278236

Then you had to connect to the server with these patches on and it should work.

The part that finally got my game to 'click' and work properly again... after reinstalling the beta patch (I used 94444), I went into my Op Arrowhead folder and copied the ARMA2OA.EXE file from inside the beta folder and copied it into the main Op Arrowhead folder just like I did the first time I set the game up to play.

Once I did that I was able to log into games just fine. Good luck to you.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I tried the latest beta pack already but I'll give the other suggestions a try the second I get back online. Woke up this morning and there's a storm outside like something outa the Bible! It's killed the phone lines, Internet and power :-/ so I'm posting this on my iphone lol. Ho hum it's always something :-D The board games will get dusted off soon to give me and the kids something to do.

You'll have to talk me through this so I can try it. The beta patch I'm already using but I don't have an OP Arrowhead folder or a beta folder. I do have a ARMAOA.exe tho inside my ARMA 2 folder.
