//EDIT: Added more information as I get it.

I'm experiencing very frequent (80% of the time) crashes, shortly after launching the game.
The crash happens ~30-60 secs after launching DayZ; it may be on the server list, on the video config screen, or after connecting to a server on the server list and waiting to enter the server.
On the other hand, once I join a server and start playing it'll be fine -- I've never experienced a crash in the middle of playing.
When the game crashes, it goes back to Windows which shows an error: "The instruction at 0x.... referenced memory at 0x... . The memory could not be read.". The memory addresses change each time.
Running the x64 version of the game apparently makes the crash less likely.
A Windows error appears:One of the last times I managed to join the game and play normally for ~45 minutes, then was brought back to the DayZ server list with the message "Connection to server has been lost". I exited the game normally and when I went back to Windows I noticed there was the dreaded Windows error "The instruction at 0x.... referenced memory at 0x... . The memory could not be read.". The memory addresses change each time" I don't know if this error caused the connection cut or vice versa.
Running the x64 version of the game makes the crash less likelyI should probably mention that my character is invisible on the start screen (see https://forums.dayz.com/topic/236948-my-character-is-invisible-on-the-start-screen/). I only see the words "Letf" and "Right" and my name underneath. The scenery behind looks fine.

I exited the game normally and when I went back to Windows I noticed there was a Windows error "The instruction at 0x.... referenced memory at 0x...I've already tried "Verify integrity of game files" on Steam, . The memory could not be read." I don't know ifit corrected 1 file once but this error caused the connection cut or vice versadidn't change anything.
I'm using the latest stable version (v0.62) on Steam.
