hahhaha type -winxp in the target of the shortcut. after the .exe" with 8gb it worksgoldenmessia
Hmm, that didn't solve my problem. I'll try posting the shortcut's properties: Target Type: Application Target Location: Steam Target: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe" -winxp -applaunch 33910 Start In: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam" Ofcourse, there are more options under properties, I've just posted I found most relevant, if you need any more, feel free to ask. I'm only able to edit the two last ones. And as you can see, I've edited "target" as you said. Have I done anything wrong? Should i change something in compatibility mode? I'm not able to remove some RAM, seeing as I then will lose the guarantee on the pc. BTW, is your version bought on Steam or in a store?

Try going to Microsofts web site and doing a reinstall on DirectX from their site. I know 2 people who had a problem with DirectX drivers in Windows 7 with this game and reinstalling it from Microsofts web site fixed it.

If your other games don't look this way, I don't see how your screen could be the problem. Also, I've never heard of a antivirus causing that to happen. I would download the latest updates of DirectX, re-install your drivers properly (by that I mean uninstall them, restart, install the latest, restart). I would also check to see if the game is corrupted. You can do this in steam by right clicking on the game icon in steam and then going properties, select integrity scanner.Gooeykat
I should be running the latest DX version, but do you mean that I can update directx, without updating to a latter or earlier version? As I said, I'm currently running DX10.1, the latest version of DirectX. I tried checking if the game were corrupted. Apparently, it wasn't. The drivers have been installed properly. As aforementioned, I've just formatted my hard drive, and then installed this driver. So it should have been installed properly.

Not sure what it could be, not sure if it could be Driver Problem if you've used two different Driver, Or it could be something gone wrong when installing Win7, I'm using it right now and ArmA II is Running Fine here (Steam version as well), Make sure DirectX is fully up to date.

I've never seen the Problem before So I don't know how to fix it So I'm not much help on this part.:P

-

Right Click ArmA II go into Properties, than click the [Verify ...Blah,Blah,blah...] Button in steam to make sure everything got downloaded or whatever.

I doubt that it is a driver problem. As I said, I had the 8.612 driver when i downloaded the demo from steam, and at that point, I had the same problem. I've recently formatted my harddrive, due too some nasty spyware, so I've also done a clean install of Win7, since I downloaded the demo. Ofcourse, it could still be a driver problem, but then the problem would be on both drivers, which normally isn't the case. I've just used the built-in Direct X Diagnostic tool, and it confirms, that i'm using DX 10.1 I'm wondering, could my screen be the problem? I'm using a Samsung SyncMaster 2333HD, and I can see in dxdiag that the "current display mode" is set to: 1920 x 1080 (32 bit) (59 Hz) I'm also suspecting that the anti-virus is the culprit. I'm running the beta version of Kaspersky for Win7. I've enabled training mode, but i don't think I've blocked anything that could prevent the game from working properly. Arma 2 is BTW fully patched.

Hi everyone. I just bought Arma 2, and I'm experiencing major problems with the graphics. It was bought over Steam BTW. It seems as if the color saturation are totally wrong. I have uploaded a few pics, which can be seen here: http://peecee.dk/upload/view/178779 http://peecee.dk/upload/view/178780 http://peecee.dk/upload/view/178781 http://peecee.dk/upload/view/178782 http://peecee.dk/upload/view/178783 Sorry for the poor image quality, but i haven't been able to take in-game screenies after installing Win 7 RC1, so i had to use a regular digital camera. My specs are the following: CPU: AMD Phenom II 940 3.0 GHZ quad-core GFX: Ati Radeon 4890 1 GB of dedicated memory Ram: DDR2 1066 mhz Kingston value ram CL5 OS: Windows 7 RC1 If you need more specs, just ask. I'm using the latest Catalyst 9.6 driver, but I had the same problem in the demo, and at that time, I was using 8.612 driver, you know, the WHQL certified one, and I had the same problem at that time. Has anyone got any ideas, regarding to fixing this issue? Any help is much appreciated, thanks in advance. Sorry for eventual grammer problems, I'm a foreigner.
