What's wrong with main player profile?

[Saint Warrior 10]

Hello everybody,

Does anyone have any ideas about what's wrong with the main player's profile of the game? I mean the one in ArmA 2 profiles folder, created using Windows account name.

Following numerous advices I deleted it last night, taking into consideration that I play from other profile. ArmA 2 started doing incredible things immediately - the whole screen went filled with randomly flying blinking squares, lines etc. Unplayable, speaking generally.

The only way to solve the problem was turning off Catalist AI in ATI CCC of my HD 4870 X2 card, cause the game somehow became incompatible with either just Catalyst AI or the Crossfire X technology entirely.

Managed to solve the problem completely by upgrading to latest Catalyst AI 9.7 drivers, so got Crossfire X working back normally. Suprisingly, ArmA 2 recreated back the deleted profile again.

It's already a real mystery. It seems that main ArmA 2 profile is the core of the entire game. :eek:

P. S. I am running on all High settings with 2580 meters visibility, both in game and 3D resolution: 1650 x 1050 x 32.

System:

AMD Phenom X4 Black Edition 3.0 Ghz

4 GB DDR2 800 Mhz Corsair RAM

XFX ATI RADEON HD 4870 X2 2GB GDDR5

Seagate 1.5 TB HDD

Windows XP SP3 32 Bit

That folder contains the ArmA2.cfg which has your basic video settings information. The game will puke when it can't find the config file.

Sorry, there is some misunderstanding here. I did not delete the whole folder, but just got rid of profile file alone, named WinAccount.Arma2profile. I never touch any .cfg files, I know they're vital for the functionality of the game. All that sudden disaster occured after deleting the profile file itself.
