Hello,
I'm experiencing a critical issue with DayZ version 1.27.159674 on Windows 10. The game goes black on launch, and the RAM gradually fills up to 99%, without reaching the main menu.
I've tried all of the following without success:
Running without mods or server connection
Deleting the entire game configuration and clearing shader cache
Trying different NVIDIA driver versions (551.86 and 565.90)
Running as administrator, in borderless windowed mode
Using sfc /scannow, DISM, reinstalling Visual C++, and disabling overlays/antivirus
Windows Clean Mode and a new user account
This issue occurs even when launching the executable directly from a .bat file, without a server connection or BattlEye.
My hardware:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700X
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 2060 (current driver 551.86)
RAM: 64 GB DDR4
OS: Windows 10 64-bit
Resolution: 1920x1080 (single display)
I've attached the generated diagnostic files.
