Got game crash? Do this

[underwoodcraig85]

Not quite sure whats going on. I emailed Dwarden, but he sounds busy so I thought I thought I would post a thread. I am using a 3.3 duel core cpu, 6gb memory, 500 gb hard drive, gtx 550 ti graphics card. I have tried changing settings to low, to med, etc, still i get crashes. sometimes in as little as 15 minutes, sometimes after 2 hours. I paused the game to take a leak and game back to a bsod. I paused the game one time and went grocery shopping, came back 3 hours later, game ran fine. not quite sure what to do.

figured it out, thanks for nothing everyone ! lol jk. it was because my cpu was overclocked, had to reset to defaults in bios. updating just incase another poor soul wonders onto this form hoping that someone can help and then just waits for months.

I bought and downloaded the double pack that has ArmA 2 and ArmA 2 OA, the first game runs fine. Every time I try to run Operation Arrowhead I get 2 errors and the game shuts down, and I tried re-downloading and it didn't fix it. The first error is: No entry 'bin\config.bin/CfgInGameUI/MPTable.shadow'. The second error is: Error compiling pixal shader PSSpecularAlpha:0. Please help if I can't fix this then I just waisted money.

This problem just started yesterday. I have deleted the game and reinstalled it 3 times. STEAM tells me there is one file with integrity problem. It reinstalls the file (i assume) but the problem persists. The file name flashes by so fast I cannot read it. When I launch OA or CO, the launch window appears, the script runs and then nothing. Sometimes, Windows will report that the program has stopped working after the checkboxes appear. Does anyone have any ideas? PLEASE HELP. BTW, before anybody brings it up, it was working fine, the problem started in the middle of an operation with some friends.

@ArmyAj28
Your post is from June, so a late reply, but theres a thread here for your error:

@BEHILL
Welcome to Bis forums, sorry to read about your issue, but please locate your RPT.

The arma2OA.rpt, located in your -profiles root directory, or if used without this parameter then it can be found in these default locations:

WINDOWS XP: %userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\ArmA 2 OA

WINDOWS VISTA / 7: %userprofile%\AppData\Local\ArmA 2 OA

The RPT is a log file that the game generates basically reporting what is going on with the game be it errors, or just updating classes, ect,.
It can be opened with notepad, once you open it highlight everything in the rpt, then in reply go to advanced at bottom right ,and then paste
in the box, once pasted, highlight again, and then hit the # button on the tab above the post, this will put the rpt into a code format, making it scrollable.
or
upload the rpt and provide a download link.

Lastly what are your computer specs?

Every now and again with both A2 and OA, I crash to desktop. The message says A2 has quit working and windows will look for a solution. I use official nvidia drivers, currently version 306.97. I tryed to post my rpt as code, inside a spoiler but I guess it's too long . I do not know which part to highlight and paste here...
