"Invalid Handle"

[dyllandry]

I try to run Operation Arrowhead so i can then play Dayz, but all it does is give me a blackscreen then the error "Invalid Handle".

Hi Welcome to BIS forums!
I believe Dayz requires Arma2 and OA as in Arma2 CO, so your missing Arma2.
Question is can you play OA by itself?

A friend got the same problem.

Can't start the game over 30 minutes if it appears. She got the Arma 2 Combined operations steam version. and it appears 2 - 3 times a day.
Is there any solution out there? because its freaking ous out >.<

[Apok]

No one got a tipp or a solution? its kinda frustrating

[Apok]

Still nothing?
I mean i cant even start Arma 2 OA.

Well the fact you post zero system specs doesn't help you for a start...

[Apok]

The system runs on:

AMD Athlon II X4 640 Processor
4 Gig Ram
ATI Radeon HD 5700

Launching as admin, Steam and Arma.
As i already said, its Combined Operation. The error occours randomly but stays for 10 - 30 minutes. after that you can start Arma 2 OA.

but if you got this error 3 - 4 times a day. uff :/



Everything is Uptodate. Drivers, Windows updates.

We're running Arma 2 OA on the betapatch 95883.

[Apok]

Still the same Error.
No one else got this?
No one hast a solution?

[Apok]

I guess the lack of response is due to the fact that no-one knows the answer. I have googled around a bit and other than your posts on other forums I can't see any reference to it. The only thing I found was here where someone seems to have fixed the issue - may try PMing him on the DayZ forums to see how he fixed it?

Have you tried different DayZ servers?
