    I have a somewhat technical question.

    So, I finally decided that it was time to get the first Mass Effect. So, I did. Spent twenty bucks, downloaded it, let it go overnight. Next day, I try to play it, and I get a windows error message almost instantly, before I go to a black screen or anything, that says that it's encountered an error. I uninstalled it, redownloaded it, and it did the same thing.

    When I run the launcher as an admin (online help said that that might help), it opens up the start screen, the one with the play, readme, website etc. buttons, but when I hit play, it gives me the same exact error message and dies.

    I imagine that if my computer can run skyrim just fine, I doubt that it's a capability issue. Likewise, TF2 runs normally, so I know that my antivirus isn't messing it up, and it's not steam itself.

    Can anyone help out?

    Could you list down your Windows version, as well as your PC specifications and any antivirus/antispyware you might be running? Mass Effect 1 is quite poorly ported (and optimised) to the PC and really needs a swift kick up the arse.

    It handles Skyrim just fine, so I imagine it shouldn't have an issue with ME1. Also, that shouldn't contribute to immediately crashing, should it?

    The min is "VIDIA GeForce 6 series (6800 GT or better), ATI X1300 XT or better (X1550, X1600 Pro and HD2400 are below minimum system requirements)"

    So ME1 should not have an issue running due to graphics.

    Note the HD2400 part. HD3450 is not that much more powerful.

    Might be driver issue? Does error say anything or is it just random crash?

    Oh, make sure you go online and download the patches. This is critical for ME both 1 and 2. If you have not, that can fix the issue.

    also note I did not say he can run it at max settings or not (mainly because its been forever since I played with ME1 settings), but rather he should be able to play it.

    Where do you get that impression? Cause I am confused as to your stance. As you said

    Which implies you even thought it either meets min requirements or surpasses them.

    Also judging by these comments (and personal experience)

    Quote Originally Posted by Wyntonian View Post

    This link you can compare the specs of the two cards
    [URL="http://www.hardwaresecrets.com/article/AMD-ATI-Chips-Comparison-Table/131"[/URL]
    If you scroll all the way down you will see a disclaimer that ATI measured clock speed differently on the 2400 and the 2600 cards but NOT the card in question (3450).

    Even if you compare the 1800X (Thats the recomended card for ME1) to the 3450 cards on the table listed above you can see that there are a significant differences between the two. More so if you consider that the 3450 was the first card for the ATI mobile hardware that uses PCI Express, which is a big change.

    Also one final note, Mass Effect 1 came out back in 07 and did not demand top of the line hardware back in 07.

    With all that being said, I still have not said one can play ME1 at max settings with that card, but rather one should still be able to play it well with a 3450

    I'm running a 4770 and can handily max out ME1 and 2, so a 3450 isn't going to struggle too hard when it has 8gb of ram to help it along too.

    Most of the hard load goes to the CPU anyway, so graphics cards are getting less important these days.

    Anyway, with the ME1 problem. It's a notoriously buggy port. I'd advise patching it, finding unofficial community patches, and possibly digging into the config file (like I had to). Google is always your friend with these problems.

    While I am glad that my guess that Merasmus would send zombie waves upon us was correct, I am more stoked at Unusuals in a Bottle (potions).

    I really hope that those are permanent like strange parts, otherwise I would be a very sad panda.

    Some people seem upset that the competition is gone, but I for one welcome the change, since other players were always beating me to the gifts.

    Also, on the update page, the zombies are RED. Does that mean the BLUs finally have a chance to shine?
