I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me solve a problem that seems to be caused by GDF (Windows Game Definition File) installation.

Note: "X:\\" is the partition of my hard drive for games.  I configured Origin accordingly.

I have read similar problems on the EA forums (http://forum.ea.com/...st/8238677.page - Unsolved) and on the Bioware forums (http://social.biowar...index/9303496/1 - Solution didn't work for me).

The Bioware forum post recommended adding certain keys to the registry, so I copied the following from my working laptop to my unworking desktop as recommended:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Wow6432Node\\BioWare\\Mass Effect 3]

"GDFBinary"="C:\\\\Origin Games\\\\Mass Effect 3\\\\GDFBinary_en_US.dll"

"GameExplorer"="{63BF3C9A-A201-47CF-9E9D-21834B475696}"

"DisplayName"="Mass Effect™ 3"

"Locale"="en_US"

"Product GUID"="{6A9D1594-7791-48f5-9CAA-DE9BCB968320}"

"Install Dir"="C:\\\\Origin Games\\\\Mass Effect 3\\\\"

This still did not fix the problem.

Other things that I've tried:
  • Installing from DVD.
  • Installing from download.
  • Installing from DVD files copied to HD.
  • Installing as administrator.
  • Reinstalling Origin.
  • Calling the EAProxyInstaller.exe from the command line with the same arguments.
  • Calling the EAProxyInstaller.exe from the command line with different arguments.
  • Calling the Touchup.exe from the command line with the same arguments.
  • Calling the Touchup.exe from the command line with the different arguments.
  • Adding above values to the registry that were copied from my laptop.
  • Adding every value for Mass Effect 3 to the registry as found on my laptop.
  • Removing values all Mass Effect 3 values from my registry.
With all this tried, I've run out of ideas.  Can anyone help?
