Arma 3 Fails to Boot in 64 bit
Closed, ResolvedPublic
Actions

Description

Arma 3 refuses to boot in 64 bit, but will start in 32 bit in windowed mode. This was a passable workaround, but can't handle anything with mods that demand more memory. With a lot of mods on anything beyond the virtual reality spaces the game quickly runs out of memory. My computer has a Ryzen 7 5800X and a Nvidia RTX 3090 with 32 GB of RAM. I doubt it is the fact that my computer does not have enough memory or capacity to run the game. This game is unplayable with this constant crashing.

The crashing thing seems to be some joystick that you have attached, "vJoy Device"
The crash is actually inside a windows library, nothing we can do about that. Probably just remove your joystick or gamepad.
In the rpt log I also see there are some issues with your joystick
