Dragon Age 2 Has Stopped Working

Hey all - looking at this forum has me a bit worried, as many players with the Vista64 OS seem to be having issues at various stages of play with their copies of DA2...

I scanned as many threads as I could find in the hopes of avoiding a reposted issue and clogging forums, but I failed to find an issue that encompasses what I'm going through, maybe you guys can help?

Background Info:

I preordered DA2 from the EA Store, I've got the EA Download Manager up and running, my copy of DA2 is registered and authenticated, and it is well past the release date of 03:00AM EST time.  All of my DLCs appear in my Bioware Social Network account, and are accounted for.

The problems seem to have started after I installed the game from the EADM - when I start up the launcher and select play, I immediately get an error stating "Dragon Age 2 Has Stopped Working".  It scans for a reason and a potential fix, fails to do so, and then my only option is to cancel out.

I'm not a computer genius, but I'm also not a complete idiot about things, and usually I can find solutions on my own or by calling an IT friend, but nothing seems to be helping.

What are some solutions myself and others with this problem can attempt to possibly fix this? 

Again, I'm running Vista 64 bit, I have a GTS 250 gfx card, and my RAM and processor are superior to the recommended specifications for the game.  Help!!

path to Program Files (x86)\\Dragon Age 2\\bin_ship\\dragonage2.exe
right click and select properties
under the 'Compatibility' tab you want to run the program in Win XP (SP 3) mode.

Hopefully that does it.

Thanks for the bug reports, everyone. We're doing our best to reproduce on our end. In the meantime, I'm going to lock down this thread and redirect the discussion to our central "Unable to Launch" sticky - http://social.biowar...0/index/6442590
