Any luck of getting this fixed Matt, I have now changed GFX card to Asus GTX 760

And it's not that so not sure what it could be. Some specific settings?

Another update is that after I got the file from a friend I can start it but once I start playing with graphic settings and start it next time game just starts and minimezes and can't bring it up again.

Small update got the dayz.cfg from a friend and played around with the configs got it work but it's not optimal still, can't tab out and also when I start the game I have to do alt tab once for it to load properly

Matt, those files are not inside that folder. I only have DayZ.rpt
