Hey all
I recently got myself a brand new PC. I was eager to play ArmedAssault with everything maxed out, but to my surprise, I can't even get the menu to show up. I wrote a mail to BI, asking them for advice. An helpful lad told me, that nothing was being worked on atm, and I would have to wait for ArmA2. 3 days later, 1.15 was announced. I was thrilled. But but but, this still hasn't fixed anything to me. My PC specs: ASUS P6T Deluxe Intel Core i7 920 Corsair DDR3 PC3-1333 4x2GB CL9 XMS3 DHX Club 3D HD4870X2 The only thing i can get to show, is the menu, looking like this. Weird menu Does anyone know what is wrong? I'm getting sick of playing COD4 & 5  Yours sincerely, Thomas |

Moving to troubleshooting
 Welcome to the forums ! I assume you have correctly patched to v1.14 ? Latest drivers installed? Ae you running Vista? If hav heard that ArmA dislikes it when more than 4 Gb of Ram are installed. Check out this site for further reference (if you use vista): http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/ArmA:_T...eshooting_Vista -------------------- |

Woops, sorry for wrong subforum!
Yup, 1.14 patching was done correctly, and all drivers should be up to date. I'm running Vista x64 Ultimate, and I'll give that link a go in 2sec, thanks.

It may be because I haven't installed Service Pack 1. I've tried this at least 16 times now, and I've reinstalled Vista 5 times already.

I sort of "fixed" it.
I added "-window -x=1920 -y=1200" to the shortcut, and the game started up perfectly in windowed mode. It doesn't run perfectly smooth, but it's a start

Similar problem, but i've given up and am just waiting for arma 2. 1.15 did not help me, i got 8gbram and still it did not pick em up (which infact my ram is stuck now on 3 and wont go back up2 8 lol), but would be nice if the patch did work as intended.
