We recommend patching to 1.01!
Do this if the game won't start after updating to 1.01:The patch was built with an updated version of the MS VC++ 2005 ATL runtime libraries.
http://www.microsoft...&displaylang=enscroll down to:
vcredist_x86.exe --> DOWNLOAD ( regardless of whether you are running 32bit or 64bit you need THAT x86 file )
(To confirm you got the right file, you can check the file size; should be approx. 2.61 MB).
You will want to use the x86 version for ALL OS’s!Fix for Vista and Windows 7 Users Games Explorer Link not working:
It's a corrupted game definition file that was installed from the
update. You'll need winrar or winzip (version 10+).
Navigate to your DVD open the data folder and then open apps_ship.rar .
Inside
the rar file will be a folder bin_ship. Open it and then copy the file
daoriginsgdf.dll to the same directory in your Dragon Age install
folder overwriting the existing ( or alternatively you can back it up
somewhere first ) . This will fix the problem.
If you don't want or can't do all that, then just navigate to your Dragon Age
install folder and make a shortcut directly to DAOriginsLauncher.exe
and that will let you play. (Won't fix the Games Explorer though.)
Fix for Crashing to Desktop on Multi-core systems (also slows the memory leakage)This applies especially to AMD processors but also affects some Intel Core 2 Duo and Core 2 quads!
For dual core set to CPU 1 only, for quad core set to CPU 2 and 3, for i7s set to 4, 5, 6, and 7.
Set processor affinity
Open windows Task Manager. Right click on the Taskbar of your windows vista desktop and select Task Manager or press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open Windows Task Manager
Click on the Processes tab
Click on the Show processes from all users button, at the bottom
Click the Continue button for UAC prompt
Right click the process (application) whose processor affinity you want to change
Click Set Affinity
Check the CPU(s) that you want the process (application) to run on and click OK
Fix for strange issues with my game such as scripts not firing or party interactions not working and “Module will not load”This is often caused by the Dragon Age Toolset. If you have the toolset installed and you’ve messed around with it (including beta versions), the toolset may be overriding the scripting of the single player experience.

A new version and patch for the toolset should be coming out early next week to address this. It's a sneaky subtle bug that we missed during testing since we unfortunately weren't able to get our beta testers full copies of the game pre-release. The problem is that the version of the core resources that came with the toolset have different internal ID numbers on the plot files, including the plot file that keeps track of which followers you've got in your party, so if you export anything that includes core resources (ie practically everything) the game will lose track of the values stored in them. If you then save the game those incorrect plot values wind up stored in the savegame, so simply removing the exported resources won't fix things on their own.
There's a thread at http://social.biowar.../index/114380/2 that discusses the issue in more detail, and includes some suggestions on how to get your party members back by editing your savegame to put the correct values in there manually. If you have a savegame from immediately before you first tried exporting something with the toolset, you might also want to try that again after you've cleaned out your override directories.
the Original Post by Brian (from Bioware)The Fix:
1) Load toolset, go to tool > export > Empty Export Directories
2) FIND:
Windows XP: My Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age\\modules
Windows Vista: Documents\\Bioware\\Dragon Age\\modules
*Delete the single player folder*
3) FIND:
Windows XP: My Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age\\packages\\core\\override
Windows Vista: Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age\\packages\\core\\override
*Delete everything in this folder*
Fix for PhysXloader.dll not found and other PhysX errors 1) Try manually installing the PhysX System Software from your Dragon Age DVD. It's located in software folder and it's called, "PhysX_9.09.0408_SystemSoftware.exe"
2) Go to Nvidia's site and install the latest Physx system software.

Fix for game minimizing to desktop frequently.
The game minimizing to the desktop is apparently primarily tied to AVG 9.0. It doesn't happen with the 8.5 version, only 9.0. Some users have been able to resolve the issue by toggling AVG into "game mode" but this is not 100% reliable. The only 100% reliable fix thus far has been removing AVG and replacing it with something else. Should you chose to do this we're recommending Microsoft Security Essentials (free and a lower RAM/CPU load than AVG 9.0).
General Troubleshooting Tips
Run Microsoft update:
http://www.update.mi...icrosoftupdate/Get Microsoft update and select "custom"
Then have it install all the optional updates as well as the critical ones. That often fixes unknown
errors of a variety of kinds.
Don't just use windows update or the "automatic updates" as those only patch certain things... do the manual update too as “optional updates” are quite often necessary for a good gaming experience
