Arma 2: Graphics troubleshooting

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.

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

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.

I doubt it's Windows 7 I'm running it right now as my Main OS and ArmA II isn't giving me any problems, I installed Steam and ArmA II on my laptop with Win7 on it although it can't run it worth a crap It still doesn't have this problem.:P

Download the Latest DirectX Redlist, I seen you already did this but I'm just making sure.;)

Try a different Driver Set Download and use Driver Sweeper, to make sure that your Driver set now is completely gone and so you can install a Fresh Driver Set. I'm using a Nvidia Graphic Card so I don't know whats a good Driver set with ATI cards at the moment.

If neither of theses work then I don't know what else.., I recommend Asking for help on BI's Forum ArmA 2 - TROUBLESHOOTING,

hahhaha type -winxp in the target of the shortcut. after the .exe" with 8gb it worksgoldenmessia

Most likely Windows 7... Shadowhawk000

I don't know what the problem is, but I know its not this. I'm running it fine under 7.

Well so far it seems like a problem if you have 8 GB of RAM.. although with that command line trigger now I'm not so sure if the game is able to use all of my available memory in xp compatibility mode (assuming that's what the trigger is). If anything could use that much RAM, I'm sure it would be Arma

Right click on Arma 2 in your Steam games menu, Properties, Set Launch Options, and add -winxp there ... I can't say for sure if it would work the way you were doin it.
