After installing arma 2 on the day of release and trying the game I thought best just to leave it until some patches appeared same as ofp and arma.
After trying all the beta patches and a lot of the tweaks found on the forums my game still ran bad like 10 - 20 fps.Then i tried installing the 1.04 patch still no difference.I read about adding maxmem to my arma2 shortcut a lot of people said it made a difference a lot said it did not.
My shortcut looks like this
"C:\Program Files\Bohemia Interactive\ArmA 2\arma2.exe" -nosplash maxmem=4000 -mod=@Proper
Now my game runs between 35 and 40 odd fps -mod@proper is low vegitation addon.

All settings on normal video memory on default aa 2 no anistropic 2000 view distance.
Now everytime i start the game it kicks into a black screen so i need to make new shortcut everytime i want to start the game up?
