I have great pc specs, good video card and plenty of space! And I still have no idea why ArmA Armed Assault/Combat Operations is so laggy? I guess it is the game, because I was running it by 1280x1024 by high at first and I changed to normal, but it is still laggy either way. Is there a way to fix the lagg? Cause it has to be the game, not my PC.

HAve you installed patches 1.08, 1.12 or 1.14? They all fix lag issues.

Did you update your videocard drivers but also, motherboard chipset and sound card drivers?. Do you have the latest patch for ArmA?. With each beta patch that was released, they improved the performance and fixed many things. The latest patch is 1.14.

I have tried to patch..but all these patches fail. They are either missing something or are corrupt.

Can someone please give me a good link to the clean and working 1.08 patch and also the International 1.14 patch for ArmA Combat Operations?

It's because of that NVIDIA GeForce 8300 GS you have. It's not a high end gfx card at all and thats what arma needs for high settings. I'd recommend atleast a 8800 to run on high.

Yeah.. but even with Nvidia GS 8300 I can run my other games like Red Orchestra Ostfront 41-45, Darkest Hour, or whatever on 1280x1024, 1152x864, or even 1440x900 without a problem, and everything on highest. But anyways, I cannot afford a better video card for now... I also downloaded the patch and tried to run it. My latest version of ArmA is v105...this patch I tried to run was v108 and this is what I get

Your GPU sucks...

Get a 8800GT or at least a 8600 if you want to play the game without problem on a decent settings, but if you don't want to buy a new GPU, turn down the graphic settings.

And have you tried reinstalling ArmA to try the patch?

Edit: Those games that you mentioned aren't really demanding.
