Annoying bug with video memory/textures options

Recommended Posts

Awhile back for some reason my options for video memory and textures got locked at normal settings. No idea why this happened, and I'd really like some help. The issue is on my installation of arma 2 and OA. I got OA through steam and I got arma 2 through the green man gaming free arma event.

Things I've tried:

Re-installing, deleting every scrap of arma I could find and then re-installing, tried finding config files for graphics settings but all I saw was some stuff I didn't really want to mess with lest I break the game more. Tried updating video drivers as well and that didn't change anything.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tried with the patches and they didn't fix it sadly. I've run out of ideas on things to try, but I really want to get this fixed. Just bought the PMC Dlc as well because I've been wanting it but the bug carried over to it as well.

did you update the GPU drivers? (since last time)

I think you problem comes from uncle Bill/microsoft Article ID: 2026022

You may also see issues with some games or applications not allowing you to select the highest detail settings.

may i ask what's Your exact hardware config ?

GPU VRAM and normal RAM size

also what directX (e.g. did You installed latest DX redist (June 2010) ?

The API that DXDiag uses to approximate the system memory

was not designed to handle systems in this configuration

On a system with 1GB of video memory,

the following values are returned with the associated system memory:

System Memory Reported | Approximate Total Memory

4GB | 3496MB

6GB | 0454MB

8GB | 1259MB
