Windows 7 64bit

I am only playing on the 1920x1080 monitor
All drivers are 100% up to date

Mass Effect does not ever go above 30 FPS and normally hangs around 25FPS. Turning down the resolution and all textures to low has no effect on the FPS. I am on patch 1.02 and do not have vsync or dynamic shadows turned on. Nvidia control panel is on defaults. I have set the game to windows vista SP2 and SP3 and this has made no difference to the fps.

Any solutions?

Sounds like there's a cap in place somewhere. I would suggest turning V-Sync back on (There is rarely any reason to turn it off), and playing around with the settings in the control panel. Make sure your monitor is correctly detected (Or should I say monitors and are), and that both V-Sync and Triple Buffering are set to on.
Whilst it won't remove the cap (I'm not sure where it's set, to be honest), it should smooth out your current frame levels.

None of those solutions worked.

I didn't say they would. I said they'd smooth out the gameplay you do have.

Try limiting the number of cores the game can use in Task Manager (Start with using only two cores.) That usually threw my FPS up into the fifties.
