I bought Mass Effect 1 for PC from Origin (the digital version) two days ago, and I still didn't get it to launch.
When I put "play" from the Origin client, it opens a little window that says "Launching Mass Effect" and that window closes and nothing happens.
I downloaded the patch 1.02 and it says "Mass Effect is not found" even though I'm running the patch from the directory where the game is installed.
I tried running the game in compatibility mode for Windows XP service pack 3 and launching MassEffect.exe as administrator. I restarted the computer and tried again. I launched the Origin client as administrator. I closed the Origin client and of course also close the program from the tray and tried again. I tried all of those steps but with Windows 7 compatibility. I uninstalled the game and installed again, two times. I updated all my video drivers. I installed the version of DirectX that comes in the Mass Effect folder because yet another site suggested that. I downloaded a dll that was designed for Skyrim but some other users said that it was useful for Mass Effect also. I tried changing the settings from MassEffectConfig.exe to run the game in a window (obviously I can't change the settings in game because the game won't launch whatsoever, not even the presentation screen). Basically I tried other things that I've seen on forums here in Bioware, in EA or in Steam, I don't remember what else I tried but I've been trying to solve this issue following step by step what worked for other users, but for me, the game is totally laughing in my face. My computer can totally run the game because I'm running Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3 without problems whatsoever.
If anyone could help me I'd be very grateful.
