Fishercat 10 Posted October 5, 2009 Arma 2 has been working well for me and until recently no real problems. Over the last week or so when I have exited the game my monitor screen goes grey and the only thing I can do is reset power to pc. It doesn't happen every time. Anyone else experience this? Thanks for any input, even the not so nice ones that I'm expecting.:p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dogz 10 Posted October 5, 2009 since some of the latest betas my game always gives a 1 - 2 sec greyscreen on exit but does not hang and shuts down normally. nvidia 186.18 XP pro 32 sp3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeyCat 131 Posted October 5, 2009 (edited) Yes, I've had this happening but in my case only 1 or 2 times when exiting quickly after a MP session. /KC Edited October 5, 2009 by KeyCat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg 0 Posted October 6, 2009 Happens to me sometimes also. Does seem to occur more frequently (if not always?) after entering multiplayer menus. Ctrl-Alt-Del and kill the arma2.exe process from Task Manager works for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirdup 0 Posted October 6, 2009 It's only happened a few times after MP. Had to ctrl-alt-del and end the program via task manager (simple alt-tab wouldn't work). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Greg 0 Posted October 6, 2009 Has happend to me a few times. Almost always when I run Fraps also. I was not running Fraps when this has occurred. Just noting that for me, Fraps cannot be part of the cause. I believe the only 3rd party app I might be using at the same time is TeamSpeak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-=seany=- 5 Posted October 7, 2009 do you use anything like team speak overlay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg 0 Posted October 7, 2009 do you use anything like team speak overlay?I don't know what that is. Certainly teamspeak stays as a little icon in my task bar tray, nothing interacts with D3D or other graphics to my knowledge. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishercat 10 Posted October 11, 2009 It must be random. Hasn't done it any more like in a week. I don't know if it was when I was using fraps. Thanks for input.:bounce3: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg 0 Posted October 12, 2009 Just occurred for me now. No Fraps, no Teamspeak. Just looked at some multi player options, then used single player -> editor to check out a map. Grey screen crash on exit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishercat 10 Posted October 18, 2009 I figured out my problem. I was using some addons and put wrong names on several folders. Oops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
desertjedi 3 Posted October 18, 2009 I figured out my problem. I was using some addons and put wrong names on several folders. Oops. Yeah, but that doesn't explain why it happens to many others (including myself) and why it happens randomly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
