Begun crashing...

Recommended Posts

Had some troubles with my computer and reinstalled XP, other software and ArmA...Never had a crash with ArmA though, guess what, untill now...After the clean install, 10-20 min of play, artifacts, desktop, error message and another piece of confidence in this product gone... wink_o.gif

well, what error do you get? Latest drivers of everything?

You said that it worked before without a problem, so it doesn't seem to be the product but the user... banghead.gif

hehe...same drivers as before (the latest ofcourse, I mean, I've struggled to get the game running in a decent manner since 1.00 relese as the most of us...)

I think the error message was the famous "Cannot create system memory surface DXT5,2048x2048 (size 5592416 B) Error code 8007000e" or something like that, but I don't think it really matters. Loading times has increast as well.

But thanks for the nice advise Kode, really helped.

I got like 10 crashes today, untill I saw that pagefile was off.

You should try to change texture detail. If it's on default, change it to medium or something, if it's not on default, try putting it on default.

This is a known error, and there is even an existing thread about it here where you might find a solution.
