Trouble Installing(Steam)

[Djon288 0]

So I installed Arma 2, and Arma 2 Operations, I put the DayZ mod files where they have to go. I've followed the guides to the letter. Here's the kick, I can only get Combined Operations to run by running Steam as admin, however, it doesnt read the DayZ mod files then, and continious to be unable to read any mod files at all when it is in admin mode. But if I try to run it without it, I just briefly see a command promt screen then nothing.

Any sort of fixes or anything? Running Windows 7.
