well I think there's maybe 30% or even more players with this issue. Count me and my friend, both ATI 4850 - 512vram. Hope this will be solved soon, cause ARMA2 is pretty unplayable even on low settings.

Devs told me its an issue with my AGP, I am pretty sure they are yet to make a 4850 or 4870x2 AGP version... same issue yet I can stop it happenning luckily due to the fact I have AGP which I have posted earlier (I think in this thread).
Would be nice to a. have this officially recognised and worked on and b. an idea of when / if its going to be fixed.
The YT vid above show exactly what happens, I can recreate it as and when so its not as if the devs don't have anyone willing to provide reports / stats or anything they need to bottom out this ArmA2 engine problem.
12 pages of replies / testing / etc. shouldn't this be stickied as a known issue...

well then you loose your multigpu.Originally Posted by Tankriders
Has anybody tried renaming the arma2.exe? setting your HDR in the arma.cfg to 32 (8,16,32).
also does Alt-Tab out and back into game help.

...Free people unbanable...
yes. and no, it doesnt help.
just to confirm, i get this with a 4850 and a 4870, or a 4870+4850 crossfire. 512mb cards, winxp 32bit, 4gb ram (3 used)
Life fact: If you spell "mother" with a 'v' and an 'a', it's likely you're not fit to be one.

Well it's pretty clear that this is a widespread issue and the lengths some have gone to in an attempt to resolve it (and failed) are well beyond what more novice PC users and gamers are capable of.
Since it's been comprehensively proven to exist, replicated and tested, I don't think we can do much more aside from keeping this thread alive and waiting for a response from BIS.
I am also getting those glitchs on my screen
Ati Radeon HD 4800
Win xp 32bit
PLUR PEEPS
Add me to your statistics about users with problems with ATI video card.
In my case i think it's a temperature related problem, due the fact sometimes my system will fail also just before new maps are loaded in COD4 multiplayer.
Please add me to your stats. BIS hello are you there? PLEASE RESPOND!!!!!

Its not the overheating of your card it is the problem with ATI cards and the AA. Just change your AA to disabled or low and it will go away. Somehow AA on ArmA 2 freaks out on ATI cards hopefully they'll fix it.
