Same issue with beta patch istalled. DVD version (not steam). Tried full new hdd install. Only drivers and Arma2oa installed. STILL access violation within minutes of playing game in any mode. I CAN however edit to my hearts content. Too bad I can't play the game for more than 10 minutes. Ever. Under any circumstances. Installed on three seperate PC's to see if an indivdual PC was at fault. ALL of them 64 bit Windows (win7 and Vista). SAME ISSUE! NVIDIA and AMD video cards (1 year old or newer). Same error (different d3d/card driver though (of course). I have still never got to play the game (mission one/any multi)! How about a refund for those of us with no working game after "umpteen" revisions and beta's?????!!!!?????:mad: I don't mind waiting for a game bug to be fixed....but a $50.00 game that never worked, and still doesn't after several months?!:confused: I'm as irritated as some of the other forum posters. Limited patience is about gone at this point. Maybe I AM in the minority with this issue..... but as far as I can tell the people with this same exact issue are VERY numerous. I don't know at what percentage this issue plauges purchasers but it looks VERY large to me from the posts/google. At any rate; the patch didn't help me at all. MAYBE 11-12 minutes rather than 6-10? but then again, who is counting at this point.:mad: Arma2CO works fine. Just not the new Operation Arrowhead, by the way. I am planning to try the DEMO, and see if THAT works. Maybe for my money I can play ONE mission that way. All on the NEW install of course. I am CERTAIN the issue is not the computers I have tried. ArmaCO works on them without a hitch. NONE of them work with OA.:mad: All I know for certain is that this (as much as I love the games) is my last Arma purchase if I NEVER get to play the stupid thing.:butbut:

Still continues to be a problem. Even after latest BETA. Windows 7X64 Within minutes Editing map playtesting. INSTALLED a fresh win7x64 with ONLY latest drivers and Arma2op. Exact same issue. (memory set to HIGH as well... as some have suggested that.) Game is worthless to me as I can't play at all. Issue is very common in the forums and google searches. Still no fix??????? Tried with same results on 3 seperate PC's (all with Vista and Win7 64 bit OS's) now. Thats is why I tried a clean new disk install. This is clearly an app problem in my opinion at this point.
