Could this be a problem with the swap file? Is there a limit to the size of your swap file? Are you running out of free space on your hard disk drive?

Hm, can you recognize, wether this message is dispatched by Windows or by ArmA2?

patch to 1.02 latest build if you haven't already and you're not on steam, that fixed it for me. I used to get that when trying to fly around in a chopper.

In all honesty, my advice is to upgrade to Win7. It will handle your hardware much better. I think you can upgrade from Vista (I think, I went from XP to 7) so you wont loose your data. Is that right, anyone?

not enough space on your drive. Do a clean up.Run less background apps.

C: Drive Free Space = 15.1 GB

D: Drive Free Space = 49.3 GB

my Memory (RAM) is 2 GB only. Can it cause the VIrtual memory problem?

Hi All,

Now, i notice that the error appears if I load a campaign mission called "Badlands". I tried to load previous campaign missions, nothing happen.

ONLY Badlands has problem. :(

Maybe upgrade your Vista to XP would be the solution, hehe! Remember: Never buy a MS operating system simulation before SP2 is out! =)

Vista proved that the newest is usually not the best solution - at least when you deal with a monopolist like MS who build their empire on pirated versions of their own software, hehe!

Hmm.. I may be wrong but it seems like the error is related to the save system (like trying to save too many times or something)

I'm not sure if it'll help but try going to your Arma 2 folder and make sure that none of the folders or files in there are read only.

He's semi-joking, but Microsoft did introduce a plan (that's now obsolete) to upgrade to XP from Vista, now it's upgrade to the soon to be released Windows 7 (just under 2 months away for the official release)

It sounds like an issue with permissions (problem writing the files)
