DayZ crashes at launch after updating Geforce driver to 337.88
Need More Info, WishlistPublic

Description

By the way, I use an HP Pavilion laptop.

So I recently updated my Nvidia driver to the latest version, the 337.88. After the update, everything seems to work better; my other games run smoother, my laptop is cooling perfectly. But now the problem is that DayZ doesn't work anymore. If I start the game (by pressing Play on the Steam library) the game would startup but then it will immediately crash, and a window will pop-out with the words, "DayZ is not responding." I did not have this problem on the previous version that I had (335.23) I would want to play DayZ on the latest version as it is better and faster than my current driver. Any help or feedback or advice is appreciated. Thanks.

When reporting a crash you need to upload a dxdiag report and the files from
C:/Users/<Name>/AppData/Local/DayZ/

Pack the files into a .rar file - if the RAR is smaller than 5000KB, you can attach it here. If it's larger, please upload it to a file sharing website and link it here.
