I just bought ArmA 2 from nexway.com and I got a problem with the game with loading of the modells and texture. Most of the modells dosn't load propertly so for example bushes looks like a 3 dimensioned cross taking the space the bush would do, vechiles dosn't look good and the wheels are squares instead of round, the "red dot" sight is a black square instead of a red dot, the ground can appear white some places, and generally problem loading both most of the texture and most of the modells. For example if the ground is white and I hit "M" to bring the map up (The map and gui stuff works perfect), then bring it down again do I get a quick loading "splash" screen before it brings me back to game, then the white ground now perhaps got texture but the vechile that had texture before I brought up the map dosn't got any texture now.
The game also crashes after a while of playing so I suspect it might be perhaps some memory issues? Maybe memory leaks?
I've redownloaded the game from nexway.com, and reinstalled it, I've updated to latest patch, I've updated my video drivers to latest version, I've tried different video settings at game, without any luck, it's just as bad.
My computer spec:
Windows Vista 64-bit Service Pack 2
GeForce 9800 GX2
8 gb ram
Intel Quad Core 3.0 ghz
Creative Fatality Soundcard
Asus motherboard with Intel X38 chipset
I have a friend with almost just the same specs where his game runs nicely, he has vista 64bit, same grapich card and such.
Any idea what might be wrong? I've never had this problem with any other game. :confused: :j:

Solved! - Degraded my forceware drivers to 182.5 and it seems to work now.
