For anyone who get this who is new to arma errors this is a big problem with a tiny fix :D

"Steam Support:1. Right-click on the game in the Library tab and select View Game CD Key. This option is not available for all Steam games and a CD Key is not required for all games.

2. Verify your GCF files. Follow the directions in the Verify Integrity of Game Cache section of the Verify Game Cache Files (GCF) article. For Windows Vista users, follow the directions under Try Running Steam as Administrator in the Windows Vista Troubleshooting article. Then, verify your GCF files again and test the issue.

3. For Windows XP users, on rare occasions you may need to properly set registry permissions:

Exit Steam.

Go to the "Start" menu, select "Run", type "regedit" and click "OK".

Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\VALVE

Right click and select "Permissions"

Check the boxes for "Admin" and "System" to "Full control" and "Read".

Restart Steam and then verify your GCF files again."
