-ND- 0 Posted May 18, 2012 Hey all, I have been playing dayz for about 3-4 days no problems, until today. I started freezing and crashing to desktop with error cyclic data check. I can load in fine everything works good until my character is about to load into the world, then I hear BING! the error. Anyone have any idea what this could be.

blockhead (DayZ) 4 Posted May 18, 2012 if it's "data error cyclic redundancy check", then you may have a HDD issue.Either there are some corrupt files, or the disk is corrupt.If it is that error, run a check disk asap! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-ND- 0 Posted May 18, 2012 I did search google too and that error seems to have something with a disk or hard drive. I redownloaded OA and set the mod in again. I also did a check file through steam and it says 1 files is corrupt and something about being reacquired but I wait then I run another check file and it still tells me the file is corrupt. I ran it about 4 times and steam is not fixing the file.My computer is new, about 2 months old, built it my self. I don't know if it is a hard drive issue yet, but I do know this after multiple fails. When I first go into a server to the lobby is fine then when I click OK I don't see those files load the 24kb or the 41kb anymore, I know that when that file doesn't load and it goes straight to the loading screen my game will crash as soon as I load in the world. I just don't know exactly which file is that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blockhead (DayZ) 4 Posted May 18, 2012 you say you've done a check file through steam... but have you ran a check disk in windows? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-ND- 0 Posted May 18, 2012 im gunna try it now.I checked it, I think it came out clean, I didn't blue screen or saw any bad files pretty much everything was 0 up until the end, stuff really went down too fast to read and my computer just restarted its self, no problems.

blockhead (DayZ) 4 Posted May 18, 2012 hmmm... might just be some fudged game or mod files then.in that case i'd do a complete uninstall/re-install of the game and the modso after uninstalling, deleting any remaining folders before re-installing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
