Hm, vram looks ok in config file. Try to disable areo theme just as a test. Right click desktop, click on personalize, under basic & high contrast themes select windows 7 basic.

Aslo try manual fan control in CCC, maybe gpu running warm/hot.

If you have more than 1 monitor, unplug them before starting arma.

Ok i just selected windows 7 basic, currently playing the game to see whats up.I have 3 fans in my case so i dont think gpu overheating is the issue.

I have the same problem. Two weeks ago it was really often. Then I was able to play one week without a crash. But yesterday it crashed again every 5 minutes... . I tried two different versions of graphic-drivers. I can use [shift]+[-]+Flush only 1 of 10 times to come back in game. I really dont know what to do... . It is not a temperature problem or something like this. My computer is running very stable (i did stress tests and something like this).

I know how to fix everyone's issue and without reinstalling all games. Something with steam is messed up.

First

Go in to your Steam folder and go to steamapps, (MAKE A BACK UP) in another folder.

Second

Uninstall steam (make sure everything is cleared out of the old steam folder after you uninstall it.)

Thrid

Reinstall steam

Fourth

Take the Steamapps folder that I stated above that you backed up and place it in your new steam folder, replace the folder thats in the new steam folder.

From here it should fix the issue, for some odd reason, some updates mess up steam. I hope this helps you all out.

Bump, I keep having Arma2OA.exe crashes sometimes after 5 minutes sometimes after hours...tried the uninstalling reinstalling everything, and my system runs stable on any other game. Very frustrating, only really happened since 1.7.2.4

[Sasquatcho 5]

So this shit is very funny, I downloaded this on my old asus lap top and runs great played the game for 3 hours it was fun....what the fuck is wrong with my rig?!?!?!

[navy198523 17]

I do not have a clue, you could go on Armaholic.com and try asking on their trouble shooting forums. I really can't think what is causing you this issue.
