Cyper 18 Posted June 16, 2012 (edited) I installed arma 2 on my new computer now in order to finally play the game without having the lowest settings. I installed it and then updated the game to version 07. When I launch the game it loads... and just when its about to start I get directed to my desktop. If I click on the icon again, the same things happens in a milisecond. I searched the board and noticed that people have experienced crashes to desktop. But this isn't really a crash. I simply get directed to desktop automatically but the game does not crash and its still running. EDIT: Specs: - Windows 7 Home Premium Edition (64) - Intel Core i5-3570K 3,4GHz - DDRAM3 1600MHz Kingston 8GB (2x4GB) - Gigabyte 155 ATX Z68 DDR3/2133 - Asus nVidia GTX560 1GB DCII Fan Edited June 16, 2012 by Cyper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Multiautis 10 Posted June 16, 2012 Have you tried running it as admin? :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cyper 18 Posted June 16, 2012 Yes, I have also tried to run it in compatibility mode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoogieManFL 1 Posted June 16, 2012 This also happened to me after first installing off Steam when I told it to launch Combined Operations first. I instead ran Operation Arrowhead from the list and it did the first time setup and such, after that Combined Operations worked fine. Not sure if this is of any help to you though. You might look into installing and using the latest beta patch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cyper 18 Posted June 20, 2012 I managed to fix this issue. I realized that it wasn't probably tied to arma itself because I couldn't play Fallout 3 either. It had to do with my screens resolution. After fiddling around for a while with the resolution I got complete blackscreen. I then plugged in my old computer again and the normal settings were restored. I changed a little bit more.. and now I can play arma. :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
