I think this thread should probably be turned to Mass Effect in general - not just 3.
That said, I'd like to ask you guys something that I feel shouldn't be spamming anywhere else.
I got Mass Effect 1 the other day for PC. I bought it on disk for $15, inserted the disk, run the setup, saved it to C:/Program Files/Mass Effect.
From there, the launcher was placed on my desktop. When I run it, however, I just got the error message 'Mass Effect has stopped working.' Then all I have left to do it close it and try again. I opened C:/Program Files/Mass Effect/Binaries/Mass Effect.exe but I got the same thing - Mass Effect has stopped working.
I'm running Windows 7 so I ran Mass Effect.exe in compatibility mode for XP SP1, 2 and 3 but this time I got a different error message:
:
General Protection fault!
History GMatrix2D::Swap() Address=0x10bb5676 (filename not found) [in
C:\Program Files\Mass Effect\Binaries\MassEffect.exe\]
Adress=0x16753ee4 (filename not found)
I've tried reinstalling many times and even got the latest patch. Still no luck.
Any suggestions? I was considering getting a Windows XP Emulator.

EDIT: I forgot to mention I looked everywhere on Google but everyone on the ME forums suck and have no clue.
