SIXTWO 10 Posted October 23, 2010 Ok, so two days ago, i could play Arma 2... smoothly. Then One day ago, i went to install the latest GT 9800 driver. Then my computer wouldn't turn on, So i chucked it in safe mode, and by instinct a new that it was the new driver causing this. So i went into device manager, found my graphics card, uninstalled the driver update... then my graphics card wasn't in device manager anymore?? But anyways, it fixed the problem of win 7 not turning on. Then i installed the new driver AGAIN, and it installed fine.. well... half of it installed, the phyX thingy (forgot wat its called) didn't install, but the driver update, and the 3d thing installed fine.. Ok, so now when i try to run Arma 2, this pops up: "Display adapter does not support format D24S8 for X8R8G8B8" The game won't run, I did a quick Google search and found a topic on these forums, but it told me to go into dxdiag, then turn direct draw on... Did this, but it says direct draw is unavailable. Would anyone be as kind as to look into this for me and help me out, i miss Arma already lol Thanks in advance, ---------- Post added at 01:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 PM ---------- Alright, stuff that driver update up its A$$, computer just froze up on boot screen when i restarted it. So went into safe mode again, uninstalled that driver update. Computer turned on fine after that. Main problem still persists, Arma 2 won't launch and that error message still appears. ---------- Post added at 02:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ---------- -.- alrighty then, now win 7 won't run at all... This has gone too far now, i think i might take this problem to a computer tech forum or win 7 forum. Atm im currently using win XP, as my computer has two Operating systems. (thank god) but i would still like to fix win 7, as win XP is SLOW and UNSTABLE for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
