Anyone have any thoughts on this problem? My human rogue keeps freezing as soon as he tries to complete the first quest by talking to Nan in the kitchen. As soon as she's done talking, the game pauses and cannot be un-paused with the space bar or any other button. The freezing also happens with other races and classes sometimes before they even pick up a quest, sometimes upon completing the first quest. My computer well exceeds the min spec requirements and plays Mass Effect 2 no problem. Uninstalling and reinstalling doesn't help. I read some advice here about going to the task manager and setting just one CPU (I have a duo core.), but that didn't help either. If it matters, I've got windows xp.

Alright, million-dollar question. The thread states how you should set CPU affinity using Task Manager for dual and quad-cores, but how should you do so for a triple-core (say, a Phenom x3 8750?)

Thanks for any help in advance!

Hi,

For random CTD problems on 64 bits windows OS (and maybe on 32 bit) there is a working soluce here: http://social.biowar...3999/31#2037048
No need to disable some CPU (this is what CPU affinity trick does) to make the game work.


Regards,

Hey guys, quick issue, I was off the mark the starfang at soldiers peak when I noticed (after already completing the quest) that the dude (starts with J Dryden) is back at camp and asking me to do it again. i accepted the quest but when I got their, I can't interact with j Dryden and kikhael is not their. it comes up in both my completed and current quest log. Any thoughts? I think it has to do with the last time I saved but I have no idea.

I'd recommend using the core 1 and core 2 for a triple core (remembering that Core 0 is actually the first core).

Hey guys, I was having the massive CTD issue on my Intel Quad Core, I used "Prifinitty 2" (google it) to set my affinity to 2 and 3 for the game, seemed to work really well, this program is pretty nice, it auto fills in your affinity every time you log in the game, just make sure you have it running. Hope that helps anyone with the same issue as I had.

Regarding the solution post for the "PhysXLoader.ddl" file missing,

I'm using an ATI HD 5970 card and since PhysX is a product from Nvidia they are not meant to work together driver wise. Thats why i found the file seperated from the DOA folder just on the main PC folder page and manually deleted it since i saw it was from Nvidia and im using ATI obviously hence i found out without that file you cant start the game anymore. Do i really need this even though im using ATI cards? and wont there be any conflicts driver wise which could influence the in-game performance/quality? any solution highly appreciated.

thanks in advance.

alrighty, so i bought DAO earlier today through steam, and let the thing download while i was at work. I come home and start it up, and there's something screwy going on with the color. The different color channels keep flickering on and off, and i'm not getting full color, instead the screen turns green or red or half red and half blue. I have no clue what's going on with this and to add injury to the insult i can't seem to play my other steam-bought bioware games. I deleted the local content and i'm re-downloading right now, but i'm not sure if that's going to help.

Jadiekins, this may sound silly to you, but did you update your video drivers recently? It may also be a compatibility issue with your version of Windows. Or failing that, you may have just gotten a bum copy. It does happen, and I hope you can resolve your issue.

Elderly video drivers very well can and do create the strange color tints described.

Anyone know why I'd be experiencing a significant performance hit and flickering when I launch the game under one core, vs starting with multiple cores and then using task manager to take it down to one?

In the second scenario the game keeps going fine from what I can tell, but if I use a shortcut modifier to launch it with just the one core it's, well, not good.



Phenom x3 720, ati 4870 1gig, 4 gigs ram, cpu is overclocked to 3.4.

I have noticed a trend in the freezing issue. For me, it only happens in dialog right after a fight (SPOILER ALERT) i.e. right after fighting Loghain one-on-one at the Lands meet, or right after fighting Zevran's first ambush. Usually in those instances, what I do as a work around is skip through all the dialog by just clicking escape, but I loose the juicy conversation and interesting stories in the process.

I wonder if anyone is disectting this modular component of the code to see what is going on. Any other cut-scene that does not occur right after a fight isn't bad....

Wierd...

With an ATI Videocard, my game works ok, but there are moments when the models break apart, I go into options/video, I change something, then the image become normal again for a while, then it happened again.

I tried adjusting things but no success. Latest drivers installed.

Anyone knows what is causing this issue?

Is there a resolution to the sound problem at all, having conversations or automated conversations will sometimes stutter and cut a word or two from the dialogue, sound can also lag 2-3 seconds behind in cut scenes, such as the opening battle of Ostagar?



Before anyone mentions the X-Fi solution, I have one, X-Fi Platinum PCI Express, Intel i7 920, 2x GTX260 SLi, 6GB RAM.

I'm having trouble to re-install the game (retail version). I just rebooted my PC. The game works fine b4 the reboot. The problem come during halfway of the installation (notice the issues about corrupt rar, can anybody explain to me) And I've made backup copies of the DLC. Any chance I can copy the DLC's back to game? Or I have to repurchase back?

This is a User to User tech forum, where we exchange advice and suggestions, but it simply isn't possible to make any kind of diagnosis without data.  There is a fairly standard PC Game summary of key information usable in almost any game forum, that I include in many of my replies.  There is also Chris Priestley's (Mass Effect 2) description of how to report, sitting on top of the ME-2 Tech Forum.  IMO, you should ignore the suggestion from Victor Wachter, at the top of this forum.

Take your pick of mine or Chris' .

Still... STILL crashing to desktop while loading a save in Lothering. This si the third character this has happened for and it's getting annoying to redo origin stories, only to have my progress blocked either by a corrupted save file or whatever else is causing this. I've applied patch 1.04, and it's still doing it.



I have an AMD quad-core phenom, nvidia g-force 9600 GSO card, 4 gigs of RAM and all the most current drivers. Any ideas on what is causing this, and what if an fix there is?

My problem is that I cannot progress past Lothering. For some reason, the transition refuses to fire when I right click with the arrow indicator. Anyone else have this problem? This seems to happen after every patch, I have tried re-installing the game, but to no avail. Please advise.
