 I land on Feros and exit the ship. As soon as the load screen is finished, I see my arty on the dock, then I CTD- every time. Anyone aware of this issue, or if there is a fix for this out there?

I'm patched to 1.02 and all my drivers are updated...22 hours in and this is the first problem I've had.

Specs are a good idea when posting here for help. That said, recurring errors in the same spot often indicate a corrupt installation, especially when the game is otherwise working fine. This can mean some trouble if you have to re-install. The good news is, if the problem does lie with (a) corrupted file(s), nothing is going wrong with your system.

If you got the game through a Direct Download service like Steam, Impulse, etc. you may be able to tell the download client to "Verify" your installation and make sure all the files are intact. If you have the game on disc, or if your Direct Download service doesn't support verification for Mass Effect, you'll have to re-install.

If re-installing Mass Effect 1, I'm uncertain if it will keep your save games. I recommend backing up your Bioware\\Mass Effect\\Save directory, which you can find under My Documents in Windows XP. (Try looking under C:\\User\\ for Vista/7?)

To try verifying your files on your Direct Download service:
In Steam, right-click on the game and select "Properties." Select the "Local Files" tab and click the button that says "Verify integrity of game cache..."
In Impulse, right-click on the game. On the menu that pops up, there may be an option to "Verify Installation." (I do not see this option for my Mass Effect 2 DDE. Can anyone comment on Mass Effect 1?)
