When reporting a crash you need to upload a dxdiag report and the files from
C:/Users/<Name>/AppData/Local/DayZ/

Pack the files into a .rar file - if the RAR is smaller than 5000KB, you can attach it here. If it's larger, please upload it to a file sharing website and link it here.

Thanks

After 1 minute, or 3 of the game, the same error in the dayZ.exe closing the game. I did several tests including PBO audio files. Where they are not the cause of the failure. Also did tests related to directx where also not the fault of vga. The flaw is in the game executable dayZ.exe

Hi Thomas Hobbs,

Thanks for uploading the crash dumps. Could you also upload a dxdiag report?

I have the same Problem. Will try to upload my files if I figure out how it works:)

IF an App crashes, wasn't there a logfile written by Windows somewhere, or is this only for BSOD?

have Uploaded my 2 Files. Hope it helps.
