Hi whenever i try the third mission in single player campaign (Coltan Blues) and the autosave feature occurs, if i have to revert to that autosave I get thrown to my desktop/game stops and i get this message:

Cannot Load 'C:\Users\Myname\Documents\ArmA2\Saved\ca\missions_e\campaign\autosave.ArmA2OASave'.



This hasnt occured on any of the other missions i've played so far, just Coltan Blues.

Please Help, Thanks in advance to any and all replies

Well, this particular thing hasn't happened to me, but whenever I am screwing around in the editor, I'll get thrown to my desktop with the windows vista: This program has stopped working: window showing up. OA is really starting to annoy me!

Did you try to save the game manually and refert to that one instead to see what happens?

No i havent tried this yet, i will, but i dont see the point in an autosave feature if it doesnt work properley alas another problem with arrowhead, and they are racking up pretty fast, Thanks BIS ;)

Running vista and didn't have any problems in that mission, which autosave was it. (please use spoilers for the people).

However after extended hours of play time I get the "This program has stopped working" screen.

Im Running W7 Ultimate 64bit

I used that autosave one time and it worked fine. I suggest restarting the mission

Not running the latest patch for OA?

The game refuses to accept that I have bought a legit copy of Arma 2 OA, and it continues to say I have the wrong cd key. I installed the game fine, but when I run the patch, it doesn't work. I have done some research, and all I get from it is that my game is an illegal copy, when I bought it, spent 50 bucks, and I get this message, it infuriates me! I don't know what to do... It was working fine for a couple days after I installed it, and the campaign works and multiplayer works fine, but its just when I open up the editor. And to top it off, it does this randomly! i can load a mission one day, the next I cant. This is quite interesting, wouldn't you say?

Contact Placebo on the BI forums, informing him about your troubles and show him your legit key. I guess he will be able to help you. You can contact him here:

Well, I got it sorted out finally, I installed it offline, downloaded the patch, installed the patch offline, and now it all works!

How did you do that? I installed offline and downloaded the patch and installed it offline, but it says wrong CD KEY?!
