Akilez 10 Posted September 26, 2009 It's simply added to the target path in the shortcut: "D:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe" -winxp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bulldogs 10 Posted September 26, 2009 Under steam you can also add it to launch options (go into Steam -> my games -> right click arma 2 -> properties -> set launch options) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rekrul 7 Posted September 26, 2009 Is -winxp flag really necessary now? I thought it was only so the old-ati drivers could get crossfire running? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kklownboy 43 Posted September 26, 2009 Is -winxp flag really necessary now? I thought it was only so the old-ati drivers could get crossfire running?For ati that was fixed months ago, unless you want to use the Crysis.exe rename. That needs the flag. No the -winxp switch is for 8GB of system RAM issue, and for getting a 295gtx to run in sli on some nvda drivers; anything between 186 and 191---------- Post added at 11:00 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:59 AM ---------- "ethne", Bulldogs put his post up 1 minute after yours.
