  1. Delete DayZ folder in MyDocuments.
  2. Be sure to update video driver.
  3. Be sure to have swap file size set to auto or to couple gigs.
  4. Try another launcher or try connecting to a server directly from the game.

If some of this helps - reply here.

Hello xironxlegionx.
This space is ment for bug reports only, the refunds are not being handled through feedback tracker. Also, please try the following:

Verify the game data through Steam and delete the configuration files when prompted to do so (Make sure Steam Cloud Sync is disabled prior to doing this) or delete the C:\Users\*username*\Documents\DayZ folder manually

Open the DayZ launcher
Select PARAMETERS menu
Select ALL PARAMETERS tab
scroll down and check "Bulldozer" parameter
Launch the game
Once launched, close the game
Uncheck bulldozer
Launch the game again without any parameters

Regards,
Geez

Hello xironxlegionx.
Please upload the dxdiag file from your computer to this ticket.
Also, are all your software drivers up to date and have you checked your OS for corrupted files?

Geez
