Game crashing after few minutes of playing
Assigned, WishlistPublic

Description

Yesterday I have bought and downloaded ArmA 3 on Steam and everything was ok and I even played few games but today I played one game and straight after that game, Each new one that I've entered has crashed (Multiplayer\Singleplayer\Training) after 3 minutes of playing and I don't know why...
It goes like that: I start a game, 3 minutes pass, game stucks, minimizes and then Task manager says that Arma 3 isn't responding.
I really want to play again.
Thank you for reading,
Ilan

We need dxdiag and files from this folder for solve your problem. C:\Users\<Name>\AppData\Local\Arma 3\
Can you upload somewhere in winrar package please?
When package will be smaller than 2,097k, so you can attach here. Thank you.

Thank you for your answer.
I have attached a rar file that includes the files from AppData and the DxDiag file.

I checked crashdump files and game crashes on graphic.
Can you please install latest graphic drivers. Usage of driver cleaner before installing new drivers will make sure you have no corrupted drivers left on computer.

If you have overclock your graphic card, so please try go back to default values.

Try play on overall low graphic setting, if game will not crash, so choose better overall settings, until you find on which graphic settings, game will start crash.

I know this was happening to me because of an overclock. it was stable on all other games, but it crashed ARMA. Try setting your clocks back to stock if its OCd.

My processor was OC but about a month ago I reverted the settings so I don't think that this is what causes the problem...
Anyway I will try updating all drivers...
Any more solutions will be great :)

Well I have updated all my drivers and reverted the BIOS settings to default but still it keeps happening.

Did you try play on overall low graphic settings and then change to better settings?

Yes, keeps happening and in fact I don't think there is an issue with my pc but with the game and nvidia drivers or something like that...
Do you have any more solutions?

Been having the same problem since I've been playing the beta. I didn't have too many problems with crashes in the alpha.

Happens at random times with no clear indicator. after 5 minutes, after 15 minutes. different every time... but, I haven't made it longer than maybe 30 minutes without the game freezing, minimizing to desktop, task manager to close the game and regain control. Happens in sp, and mp (coop 2, specifically)
