    Soo been doing the the mutigpu debuggness, and as in ARMA1 using a Crysis.exe rename of your arma2.exe the HDR, the flashing to dark ect is greatly reduced, like not really there :) .There is still the classic strobe but it settles down real fast after you start something, and after that its way better than arma2.exe... So -winxp + Crysis.exe FTW. 4870x2's in CFX/Quadfire, great fps and now less migraines. will try a few others, farcry2 Fear2 ect...

    There has been an ArmA2 profile in the drivers since 9.4 I believe so there should be no need to rename the .exe, but if it works for you then all good. I also hear the putting lucky heather near your GPU also increases FPS but I may be mistaken.

    I appreciate the suggestions but I have enabled and disabled about everything and tested including sidebanding, fastwrites, AGP 4x/8x, underclocked, overclocked, increased power to memory, agp, increase PCI latency, removed drivers, tried no CCC, tried fan control 100%, tried with case off, tried standing on one leg, everything in game to low, 1024x768, everything to very high, running in high priority, running in lower priority, trying single, dual and all 4 CPU's, increasing AGP from 66-86Mhz, reducing down to 33Mhz, turning off DEP, turning on DEP enabling selection process, disabling LAN, disbaling Firewall, disabling Antvirus, checking power consumptio, temps, magnitic fields bounding the earth so next thing to do is to encase my machine in 6-8" lead incase there is and sort of interferrence causing this issue in just THIS game.

    Did I miss anything ?

    And the great news is the 1.02 patch appears to have little in the way of fixes but the 'important' option to disable blur effect wtf ? Looks like me and the other 'few' will have to suffer while the next option to disable somthing is added, yay.

    Before you comment, this is the ONLY game in my collection of most of the new and old PC games (mainly FPS's) that has this issue. GART is 3.77 as any later it blue screens and ASRock say use 3.77.

    It would be so easy to say 'ah its your mobo' becuase I can't replace it at the moment... I await your startling reality check and solution to all my woes... wouldnt it be funny if patch 1.02 fixed the problem...

    Impressions of UK version:

    Same as German version but in English. Same problems exist with screen corruption, no amount of tweaking gets rid of it.

    The game is broken for me although I can frig my system to get it working but not a great start.

    If only there was some recognition of this fault with ArmA2 and certain hardware and 'we are working on a fix' from BIS would help me...

    Screen shots of corruption will be posted as soon as I cba in all my regular forums.

    This is a new game and as such will attract a new player and most probably anyone that has played a FPS that wants to try something different. Well in other FPS's the aim of the game is to run, bunny hop and kill as quickly as possible and tk is meant to be fun.

    We already saw this on the release of the German version but in a small scale but it can really ruin a server, I suggest that servers have admins at all times ready to perm ban the kiddies that wish to 'test out tking skills' in game.

    The BF2 crowd will be all over this because it looks nice, also the CS crowd will jump on baord hoping to get some CS type action out of it... we know it doesn't exist so in a week or 2 they should get bored and go back to their BF type games give us the occasional appearnce to test the admins.

    I do suggest that TKing at any base or spawn gets a perm ban from your server as they will not learn and come back as 'it seems like fun'.

    Good luck to server admins and players, please keep your cool and continue to try and play whatever mission you are on without retaliating.
