This post is somewhat related to mods, however it appears to now happen when I try to connect to some normal, ARMA 2 OA/CO multiplayer games so I'm posting it here.
I was playing DayZ fine for hours yesterday, died and the game went a bit crazy - when i respawned the UI seemed really big, bigger than my resolution (1920x1080) and some elements of it were out of the screen. I restarted ARMA and tried to join the game again, as I clicked join I got a blue screen (driver_irql_not_less_than_or_equal), restarted and tried again and the same thing happened so I reinstalled the game completely, reinstalled sixupdater and remodded, now whenever I join a game I see the player list, in the lobby etc but the game is essentially frozen, the background is completely still and everything is unclickable and I have to ctrl+alt+del it out.
I thought maybe it was a driver issue, so I switched to the onboard intel gpu just to see if i could actually get past the lobby and it did (however since recent testing, this is still happening with my onboard GPU), so I now thought that I needed to reinstall my nvidia drivers, reinstalled them and its doing the same thing.
I originally wrote this post yesterday, however since I have twice reinstalled ARMA2 and the expansion, completely cleaned the registry of ARMA 2 related things in between these reinstalls.
Any ideas?
(Also ARMA2 without CO/OA installed lets me connect just fine.)
