Very well written. This would help my sales, but jewtube took down my video with 38k views. No more keys for me.

*You will no longer be able to launch DayZ through the Steam account that your CD key was banned on. If you do this, your CD key will be changed back. I recommend launching with DayZ Commander (Make sure you hit "Settings" and uncheck "Launch using steam")*

You can stop steam changing it via reg edit.

How to prevent steam from overriding your new CD-KEY

Hit your start button and type in run
In the run bar type in "regedit" *DON'T EDIT ANYTHING unless you know what youre doing*
Search for the folder Arma 2 OA , here:

Common Locations
"hkey_local_machine/software/bohemia interactive/arma 2 oa" or
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Bohemia Interactive Studio\ArmA 2 OA

Note: you can use the search function to find "Arma 2 oa" - Edit drop menu, then search.

Right click on the folder arma 2oa that contains your KEY ,hit permissions, then advanced.

Select Administrators, hit edit, Change "Set Value" to Deny .. save

Oh, nice to know. But really, launching with Commander is a lot better IMO. I'll ask to edit my stick and that in though.

I think some people like using the steam overlay, I dunno.

So I did this just as you said, and I've run into this problem. I know the key isn't banned, because I've gone through the things to check it. When I run the game now, the little box that has check marks fills up until the last two and stops. Then the program goes 'not responding' for a moment. DayZ comes up and in the bottom left I can see the server initializing, but the game is stuck on 'wait for host'. In the upper right hand corner I can see my name flashing and beside it, it'll say "My name (number) ms". Please help! I've tried reinstalling, everything.

Edit: Disregard this. Turns out the server I was trying ot use was broken. Duh!
