Try to load the game, before the loading bar fills the game locks up and crashes every single time
I try to load into the game and it crashes before the character/server select, so can not play at all.
I did change the setting from fullscreen to fullscreen windowed before this started happening. (Maybe it is related)?

Hello Radicai.
The crash dump points towards nvwgf2umx.dll which is a part of the nvidia drivers. Please try to do a clean install and make sure to install the latest version of the driver.

Hi Geez,
I appreciate the reply.
I done a fresh/clean install of my Nvidia gaming drivers, and unfortunately the game still will not load and constantly is crashing.
I have gone into the DayZ game directory and used the "DayZDiag_x64.exe" which fully loaded to the character select start screen, from here I was able to go into the options and change it back from "Windowed" to "Fullscreen", and now all is well again and I am able to load into the game again, I guess there is an issue with the Nvidia driver when in "Windowed" mode.
Once again, thanks for the reply.
All the best Radicai
