have you rebooted windows? i couldnt get arma2 to run off of steam until i restarted. it would fail at the preinstall step for me.

my side usually completes receiving data, screen switches to loading for a bit, then switches back to the setup screen. the mouse becomes useless and have to navigate to disconnect with my arrow key. for 1 of 12 attempts, after hanging at "receiving data" for a minute, pressing the primary attack key begins my online experience.

please please please allow me to fire a weapon out of the window of a truck or hmv. i always feel so stupid when a truck is getting eaten up and im in it, and there is no way to shoot back, just some suppressive fire would have helped in a lot of my situations. out of a heli would be cool but i understand if the hardcores do not want it.

8800gts 640mb 2 gigs of ram x2 3800 need yall to fix it please please please or ill

oh hell ya sickboy...i completely agree with your opinion.

what hardware do you have? nforce 4 chipset? i have not had the problems, but other ppl report crashing in mp with the nforce 4 chipset when using onboard lan. its a long shot and i doubt it but pleasea post your system specs. oh, and is this error an access violation, or a write to read only memory...there should be a little more to that error.

i would say you are at the threshold of your power requirements. i think if you upgraded your graphix card or bolted another card onto your mother board, this reboot problem will come back. i run both onboard sound and my x-fi at the same time with no problems (i know i know, but x-fi doesnt work in linux yet, and i spend too much time there). please check your power supply and the power draw of your system to see how much head room you have. today you should be running no less than 400 watts on a modern pc.

Why would he want to do that? Best to set page file to 2Gig for that amount of RAM. because windows is piss poor at managing swap. if the page file is activated your program will use swap and there is nothing you can do about it. unlike linux that wont use swap until you run out of memory. if you have 2 gigs plus, i recommend enabling the "DisablePaginExecutive" and enable "LargeSystemCache". the first option prevents the kernel and driver code from being paged to disk, the second one allows windows to utilize more memory to hold shared files like dlls, or commonly read files. if on xp all you really need to do is disable the pagefile, the above is for windows 2000.

what i dont understand is that, i tried the 1.05 beta patch and the fog issue was resolved for me...now im back to where i started...when i move the vd slider path 1000, i notice not other objects on the horizon, so i would say i am capped at 1000 for now. i just dont get it...i hate regressions in software.

i have no solution, but, my night vision flicks between no night vision, and night vision about 30 times a second when i zoom in using the goggles. it seems to happen more when i am close to buildings or trees. just registering my complaint...sorry i can not offer you anything.

be careful, an equaly prices amd is still keeping up and out pacing (in some instances) duo in game benchmarks...especially the serious sam 2 engine...athlon has a 10% lead over intel. look at the engine you use the most and then make your decision.

i wouldnt worry about ddr2, core 2 duo is using ddr2 but athlon's built in memory controller gives you 20% performance increase as it runs at full clock speed.

thats funny, i didnt have this problem until i reformatted my hard drive and reinstalled xp...now after 20-030 minutes of play, i crash back to the desktop with that error. i used to be able to play for hours, same version of dx, same driver revision for all hardware. i should note that im using a gts 8800 not an ati.

i installed the new forceware drivers and my games feels much better. i must state that i did reformat and reinstall xp after a 4 year install of win2k upgraded to xp (and ran xp for another 2 years, and yes, windows did keep it together) so im sure there was a tremendous amount of cruft in the system...so take it with a grain of salt.

thanx man, i will venture down that avenue.
