ok heres how to downgrader from the latest steam beta or any other back to 103718, as some might have tried installing it and recive bad serial error it simply wont start,

SHEEPS DOWNLOAD METHOD
download this (Its the unpacked 103178 patch as i couldnt get the installer working)
http://www.mediafire.com/download/2xxf8f2sqaqhe1a/beta103718.zip

extract it to your arma 2 folder and overwrite any thing it asks to

if you need to go back then just use steam to verify cache and it will update back to latest beta :p

OFFICAL BETA FROM BETA WEBSITE METHOD

http://www.arma2.com/beta-patch.php

download the 103718 beta from the above site
extract it and run the EXE as administrator


FAQ:
Bad serial given in setup / bad cdkey
use SHEEPS DOWNLOAD METHOD



any issues post here :) make sure you let me know what option you used!

There's a better solution:

In Steam, go to the Betas tab on OA game info and click the drop down menu, select 1.62 and allow the patch to download.

Delete the OA/expansions/beta folder, and then install the 103718 patch.

Yup though sometimes its the arma 2 tab and not the oa tab.
Also make sure to put a -a or something as part of the 112555 folder name. I have found that if its in your arma 2 folder it tries to load it so i have to reload 103718...
