DayZ wont launch

Go to solution Solved by ViruZ_HUN,

so i was playing Day Z yesterday day with out a problem but now when i launch it it opens on the taskbar and i can hear the game sounds but cant see the game all i can see is the desktop 

 

what i have tired 

checking the game cashe

 updating the video drivers

and redownloading the game still the same problem  

 

1. Start steam as administrator (have DayZ commendar turned of)

2. right click on  arma 2, and select properties, go to local files, then Verify game chase

3. Do the same as above to arma 2 Operation arrowhead^^

4. Close down steam

5. Start up DayZ commendar as administrator

6. select server of choice, and start it:D

 

Hope this works
