Tried the fix and all I'm getting now is that my game cannot connect and therefore cannot verify my DLC. I can't load my saves. I can't play.

[Fact2Garbledina]

I've tried everything short of reinstalling Windows and I still can't get this to run. It is a little bit vexing.

Same, I am still waiting for a fix. I know these things take time, but it would be greatly appreciated to hear from the devs that they are still seeing this as a problem and are working on it to fix it.

Well....i had the same issues last week, but after updating my video card drivers it was fixed.
Before i forget, i'm running a dual ATI Radeon HD5970 with a triple monitor Eyefinity setup.

The current driver version is 12.2 btw.

Yah Me3 is now doing this to me. "Mass effect 3 has stopped responding". The only way for me to fix it is to click on customize and control origin / settings / in-game / and de-check "Enable Origin in game" I really wish this game was on steam.

Ok, I went into the registry, and found....the path line for Mass Effect 3 was corrupted. I erased the line and added a new one with the correct pathway to the ME3.exe and it now runs.

So, the things done to correct the dreaded Activation screen wheel crash that seemed to have relevance.
Disabled Bullguard Heuristics (startup).
Punched holes in the firewall across all ports for ALL .exe programs from Origin and ME3.
Enabled ALL .exe as run as Admin
Used Revo uninstaller so I could use the disks again.
Re-installed ME3 and Origin (7th time lucky)
Regedit the path file to correct pathway.

that doesn't sound like it could go horribly wrong for the technologically inept

Mahrac, you just made me laugh...I heard your comment in my head as Garrus speaking! LOL

Yes, I agree, regedit and the average gamer are so not compatible...

Oh I forgot to add, that 7th install, Origin was downloaded from the Origin website and updated to Pre-Release, before installing ME3 from disk. The disk Origin install hit a glitch....yeah....

After installing the game and pressing play, my computer blue screened and restarted.  When I tried to load the game again all I receved was the "has stopped working error."  I assumed that a file got corrupted, so I uninstalled me3 and deleted the associated "My documents" file, I also restarted the computer.  Re-installing the game did nothing and I received the same error.

I tried the posted fix by replacing the awc and eacore files, but that had no effect.  I have used the fix install button several times as well as runnig origin as administrator and downloading the game instead of using the dvds.  So far nothing has worked.  I have no firewall, my computer meets the game requirements and I have direct x 11.

Any ideas as to how to fix this? The game did start to launch the first time (pc crashed before actually loading) but never again afterwards and I have no idea where the corrupted file may be that is causing the problem.

This is my problem exactly. I've been talking with EA Game Advisors but nothing I have done helped the problem in any way.

Could you perhaps tell us where the key was and what exactly you changed?

[NidoGod]

After a clean install of Windows, ME3 now crashes on startup every time. Reinstalling from the disc twice, downloading it straight from Origin twice, replacing the files here you need to replace, deleting all the previous ME3 folders have done nothing.

[Edge0407]

Every since the latest patch my game keeps crashing mostly when i press esc to check score very often and every time i finish the match it crashes and i dont get anything.At this rate i wont be able to finish this weekends challenge.

[mysteryberto]

After trying all the suggestions on the thread I figured out my issue. When Crossfire is enabled my system hangs at press any key to continue. When I disable Crossfire it loads normally. This is with the latest ATI drivers 12.3

i wanted to try that trick... but it seems the .zip is corrupt or dammage. can't unzip it :-(

I got blue screen of death in game about an hour ago. After the restart the game has refused to load. I followed the instructions from the Origin help pages (twice) but no luck.

Origin advice:


MASS EFFECT 3 PC CRASHING ISSUE
If you are having a crash issue with Mass Effect 3, you may need to download a patched version of the awc.dll and EACore.dll files in your game's EACore folder.

Here's the instructions:
Make sure Origin and your game are not running.
Download these file here: https://download.dm....sertest/awc.zip andhttps://download.dm.origin.com/usertest/EACore.zip
Unzip or extract the contents to your desktop.
Navigate to the binaries\\core folder:
Mass Effect 3 default is: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Origin Games\\Mass Effect 3\\Binaries\\Win32\\Core
Make a backup copy of your AWC.dll and EACore.dll files
Move the new awc.dll and EACore.dll files from your desktop into the directory listed above.
Now run Origin and launch your game from Origin.

Tried all of this with no change.

Hey guys. I installed from DVD and it finally launches. Origin is a real disappointment if you ask me.

My copy is a digital download from Origin, so I guess that probably won't fix it. I guess I'll just keep going with my ME1/ME2 replay until there's a patch.

Today marks 2 weeks of inability to start the software I paid $80 to use. What a momentous occasion.

Just as a note to those with this problem. I use XFire to take screenshots since despite having a screenshot folder we have no screenshot button. When opening ME3 with XFire already open I have constant startup crashes. If I close Xfire it starts immediately without problem. ME3 can crash as many as 8 or 10 times before functioning if XFire is open. I know many of you do not have XFire BUT on the offchance someone does, I hope this is useful.

Damn i just unistalled ME3... i'll try installing it again and closing xfire

[SMTPersona]

Darn, it looks like I too have fallen prey to this bug.. My ME3 was working fine just 2 to 3 hours ago, but now whenever I start it up, before the game manages to bring me to fullscreen, it says "Mass Effect 3 has stopped working".. I've tried all the solutions that were posted here but to no avail, and unfortunately some of the possible fixes mentioned regarding ATI cards won't work for me as I have a Nvidia card..

It's confirmed, XFIRE is an issue! Installed it, played fine, made xfire recognize the game, tried the game again, had problem. Closed XFIRE and the game works just fine!

Many thanks!

I am having the same issue as everyone else. Game will not launch. I have downloaded the both the awc and EAcore dll files with no results. I have reinstalled using both tthe disc and Origin download. I would like to play the game regardless of the popular view of the ending...
