I've had this before: close Arma and Steam COMPLETELY, Run Steam as Administrator, Launch the game.

Ok,about steam thing i didnt found arma 2 free there,where to find it on steam

Your graphic card has Shader Pixel 2.0 technology and the game needs Shader Pixel 3.0 to run, you can go ahead and try to trick it with SwiftShader, the game will run at least but I guess it would be laggy and unplayable.

Video card: GeForce 540M 1GB VRAM CUDA.

It's an ASUS laptop. Pretty nice system.

Run Steam as Administrator

ALWAYS run steam as an administrator if you use Windows Vista and up

Try doing an integrity check as well if you use the steam version.
