When ever I try to load the Into the Storm mission the Arma2 executable crashes, and the screen to report this error to microsoft appears. I have not been able to get to Into the Storm the following is the error message; AppName: arma2.exe AppVer: 1.4.0.59026 ModName: arma2.exe ModVer: 1.4.0.59026 Offset: 002dcbef All the other single player missions work fine This is a Quad-Core XP SP3 machine with 3GB memory and an Overclocked Nvidia 8800GTX Ultra Graphics card with everything set to Very High (except Terrain which is normal) The Windows message which pops up states that there was an issue creating a 3d display at 1920 x 1080 via DirectX Can I get a solution to this issue

Unfortunatley I also bought Dragon Rising hoping this would be a Flashpoint game with better grapics - how wrong I was the game is very basic and I would say it is an arcade game similar but in no way equal to COD: Modern Warfare (the first one). I installed the game played for 5 mins then uninstalled and went back to ArmA 2 hoping to sort out some of the issues there. In the 5 mins of playing OFP DR I simply ran to the way points and kept going I got to the 3rd mission before being shot ?? good AI

I even tried running the whole game from the start and when it comes to load the Into the Storm mission it fails with the exact same error as when trying to resume a previous mission, my machine and ArmA 2 are all fully up to date ---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 PM ---------- As an update, I uninstalled ArmA 2 from the current machine and reinstalled on my Vista machine exact same spec (except with a Maximus ASUS Crossfire motherboard and a ATI4890 graphics card) now Into the Storm loads and I am playing successfully - I don't want to keep it on this machine however.

Thanks for the links

Would just like to say what a great game/milsim I have a few issues at the moment but all games / sims have these to start with, and can't wait to complete the single player campaign and wait for the expansions, I must confess I aslo bought OFP DR which was installed played for 5 mins and then uninstalled OFP DR is not in the same league
