Hey there, hoping someone could me out with the issues I've been having with A3 and crashing...I couldn't post a new thread so I thought I'd try my luck here since no one on the steam forums seem to reply very much...
Ok so here's some background on my PC and where I'm at:
Well I had ONE crash a month ago and haven't been able to get ARMA 3 running right since, it started while crashing when trying to connect to the a MP Server, it basically went all Display Driver Error crazy with lines and boxes jumping on the screen then went into complete crash mode, after trying all of the Display Driver Error methods of fixing (ReInstall Drivers/Beta, launch parameters, etc. none seemed to help) ran IOLO software scan and fixed the problem for a week or so then it was the same old problems once again...of course *sigh...(I heard that is a big mistake to install software like IOLO or Registry Cleaner?...not sure)
Then, I did a complete system Restart where I fully cleaned my files and PC, re installed Windows 8.1 and all that, now after I reinstall Steam/ARMA 3, all is running good on my PC, no Display Driver Errors or any BS, but then I start up ARMA 3 (After new Re-Install), tweaked some of video settings to LOW-NORMAL and went to Exit the game and it all crashed and burned and went back to Display Driver problems again!!!??? Also wondering if my ACER model PC Monitor could have anything to do with the crashes? (its about 6-7 years old but still has a 60 or 75hz Refresh Rate option dunno if that can cause Disp Driv Errors?)
Well anyway here is the PC I'm working with...I know AMD is a nightmare with ARMA 3 but for the first 3-4 months this game was running perfectly fine so idk if new Windows/Steam updates are causing my issues or what the hell is going on (hopefully I didn't blow my Graphics Card out already :( ....), been driving me nutty lately since I just bought this PC *Brand NEW less than a year ago...I
AMD FX-Series FX-6300 (3.50GHz)
8GB DDR3 500GB HDD
Windows 8.1 64Bit
AMD Radeon R7 250 2GB
*Or if anyone there are certain ways I need to set up my ARMA 3 GPU/CPU in the notepad or startup parameters to help rid me of this problem? Been surfing the net and forums for different solutions but not sure what exactly would apply to my situation?
Greatly Appreciate Any Feedback
