Tried the Experimental but persist the same problem.

Start parameter removed? Game cache verified?

No parameters in command line, cache verified and Installed latest experimental

...same problem and still not playing.

Hello beheno.
Please try the suggested fixes under faq section of http://www.battleye.com/support.html (The part about the game not starting especially) and report back whether any of the suggestions has helped.
I can also suggest you to try different video configuration and see if it is going to load or not.
Regards,
Geez

Hello Geez,
I tried all fixes suggested by BattleEye,also tried different video configuration but the game still crash in server list and i have to start Task Manager and restart entire system...

Could you try out the following steps please:

  1. Launch Steam.
  2. Launch DayZ.
  3. Reproduce the crash.
  4. Go to this file location: "C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local"
  5. There you should see a DayZ folder.
  6. Create a .zip or .rar file of that folder.

Then take the .zip/.rar and the DxDiag file and upload them to this ticket. The upload limit is 5000KB, which should be enough. In case it is not, please upload the files to a file sharing website and post a link to the files in the comments.

Thanks,
JStewart

5000KB ?! My DayZ folder under [.../local] is only 2.87 KB, however ... uploaded.

Thanks.

Nothing New ?
Thanks.

The guys analyzed your crash dump, but they found no cause for your issue. If you do not press the "Play" button, but instead press the "Change server" button from the main menu, what happens then?

Unfortunately same problem :(

Do you have any launch options enabled?

No i don't have

Alright, I realize that you have already reinstalled the game, but could you try out the following steps please?

Please try out the following steps:

  1. Start Steam and right click on DayZ in your game library (make sure that the game is not running).
  2. Select the tab labeled "Local Files".
  3. Click on the button labeled "Verify integrity of game cache...".
  4. Restart your pc once the process is complete.

After this, if the problem is not solved, do the following.

  1. Download and install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/search/result.aspx?q=vcredist%202010&form=DLC
  2. Restart your pc.
  3. Download and install Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/search/result.aspx?q=vcredist%202013&form=DLC
  4. Restart your pc.
  5. Launch DayZ (run both Steam and DayZ as administrator if needed).

If this does not solve the problem, here's a suggestion that is a bit more drastic. Please be aware though; you might have to reinstall your other Steam games afterwards:

  1. Move the entire "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps" folder to your desktop. Your "SteamApps" folder should now be at the following location: "C:\Users\<username>\Desktop\SteamApps".
  2. Move the "DayZ" folder out of the "C:\Users\<username>\Desktop\SteamApps\common" folder and subsequently delete the "DayZ" folder.
  3. Uninstall Steam while making sure the "SteamApps" folder is still on your desktop.
  4. Restart your pc.
  5. Install a new version of Steam.
  6. Go to the new "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps" folder.
  7. Move everything inside the old "SteamApps" folder on your desktop to the new "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps" folder.
  8. Install DayZ again.

I'm happy to report that it worked reinstalling STEAM !! :D
Thanks a lot.

Happy to hear beheno :) Enjoy, and have a great weekend!
