 When trying to play the game, it constantly crashes, the screen freezes with a few pexels going blocky,  then the screen goes black. The music loops, then the screen comes back on and continues as normal, this is a constant thing. 

Running a ATI Radeon HD 3600 Series, 512 MB, 2 GB Ram.

Same here. I searched the forums and while that error appeared in different configurations, no solution were found.

I'm using GTX 260, latest drivers. The problem appeared only after I switched from XP to Win7 (x64).

Im running windows 7 32 Bit, is there any common factors with these errors?

[Thiev]

From what I've seen the only common factor is Vista / Win7.

The key missing info here -- what sort of CPU do you have?  Type and speed?

Victor's version of "Read this First" is over 8 months overdue for replacement.  Refer to either Pacifien's or Chris Priestly's decriptions of how and what to report, each pinned at the tops of the two ME Tech forums.  Chris' version is stickied in my name as if I had authored it, but I was quoting him there in the ME-1 tech Forum. 

So far, neither of you has provided much data at all, and nothing in, well, that mostly gets you "nothing out", sorry.   I  would suggest that each of you should check the logs of your thermal monitors to see how hot your graphics cards are getting (umm -- you *ARE* both running a thermal watchdog program, right?)  .

The problem looks like OP described, screen goes black for a few seconds and then comes back. Framerate drops to 0~2. The only difference that I don't get sound the loop, it plays normally. It can happen during loading times, conversations and normal gameplay. For me it is particulary frequent in Dalish camp.

The full message in event viewer: 'Display driver nvlddmkm stopped responding and has successfully recovered.'

It is not an overheating issue, my GPU stays below 50C and MB below 40C, respectively.

Since it started after switching to Win7, When I return home I will try to run the game with disabled desktop composition, no areo and different comp. modes. I'll post the results back here.

Uninstall your display driver and install a different one. The issue is caused by incompatibilies with the display driver, graphic card and sometimes the game. I have an ATi HD 5870 using catalyst driver 10.4. The latest catalyst driver is 11.2 and causes for me the problems you described.

^ Actually, all I had to do was to edit DA shortcut and disable desktop composition / visual themes. No crashes so far and hopefully it'll stay that way.

How do I roll back the catalyst drivers?

First download drivers from AMD. Look for entry previous drivers to choose a driver other than 11.2, 11.1. Then go to this website for instructions for uninstall. http://support.amd.c...s.aspx#windows7
