Runtime Error when installing BAF or PMC on Windows 8

Recommended Posts

Greetings.

I have ARMA X, downloadable version. I once installed it under Windows 7 without any problems. Now with Windows 8, A2 and OA (prepatched to 1.10 and 1.59), as well as all patches and ACR Lite, install without any problems. But BAF and PMC won't install, each with the same error message, shortly after the splash screen pops up, and before anything else happens:

Runtime Error!

Program: C:...

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.

Please contact the application's support team for more information.

I have also extracted the Setup-Files and run the setups in Windows XP compatibility-mode and with Admin rights, but the error still occurs.

Just copying the game-files into ARMA 2 doesn't work properly as I don't have the registry-entrys without proper installation.

Edit:\\ Problem solved:

- in msconfig set the maximum memory to 4096 and restart

- extract the setup archives (manually with e.g. UniExtract or automatically into the temprary files)

- in compatibility settings of the setup.exe activate start as Admin

- run setup
