So, it's been 19 and a half hours since release and I'm still not playing Mass Effect 2. Really a shame, as I've been anticipating this game since the first one was released and I've spent the last month checking every single day to see if new videos/content were revealed.

Oh yeah, also my girlfriend pre-ordered it months in advance for my birthday. So after all of that and having to wait 6-7 hours for Trymedia to send out a round of "OMFG LOL WE FORGOT TO SEND YOU THESE!" key-codes to everyone who ordered a digital-only preorder from Gamestop, I cannot help but feel that EA's whole laissez-faire approach to PC releases and the horrifying web of problems it seems to be causing (by the explosion in volume of this forum since 1 PM yesterday) is an enormous middle finger to me - someone who actually paid for the product. I have heard numerous reports that pirates successfully stole the game prior to release and they are all having a blast.

Why can't that be me right now?

On the plus side, it does provide me with an enormous blanket listing of companies NEVER to apply to work for once I get my degree; at this rate, Gameloft deserves to hire me more than EA. Hell, Vogster didn't even screw up this bad with Crimecraft as far as I'm concerned...

Anyhow, I am presently still receiving the 'Misconfiguration Error' no-launch when I attempt to start Mass Effect 2.

Some basic information...

XP 32-Bit System [sorry, forgot to mention that before!]

Game install directory: F:/Games/Bioware/Mass Effect 2/
EADM install directory: F:/Program Files/Electronic Arts/EADownloadManager/

Pre-ordered from Gamestop, downloader and key-code provided by Trymedia.

I have not yet determined if I HAVE to install on C:/ (an auxiliary drive in my system) or not.

The following is a list of attempted fixes:

1. Ran 'masseffect2_misconfig.exe' as provided by Stardock several dozen times. Application launches to the 'Initializing Wise Installation Wizard' splash, and then terminates.
2. Uninstalled and reinstalled ME2. No effect.
3. Updated EADM, tried activation via EADM. No effect.
4. Uninstalled and reinstalled ME2. No effect.
5. Attempted manual repair of EACore_App.ini. All paths were correct; no modifications were made; no effect.
6. Uninstalled ME2, ensured that Air was updated, reinstalled ME2. No effect.
7. Uninstalled EADM, uninstalled Air, uninstalled ME2. Reinstalled Air, reinstalled ME2. No effect.
8. Uninstalled ME2. Reinstalled EADM, downloaded ME2 via EADM. Installed and attempted activation of ME2; successful, but still recieved misconfig error on launch.
9. Uninstalled EADM, replaced with user-provided .rar for a 'clean and working' install. Attempted to launch ME2 from here. No effect.

So, what am I still missing? I have heard a lot flying around about EAAccessInstaller.exe or something like that, but I have no /Software/ folder either in the download destination of the original ME2 downloader nor in the game folder nor in F:/Program Files/Electronic Arts.

I'm just about ready to give up on this game completely.

Based on what I’ve been reading, the vast majority of the problems can be distilled down into two main categories:



• The user didn’t install Adobe AIR.



Solution: Install Adobe AIR, then follow the next step.



• The Access installer was not called properly.



Solution:

1) Open a command prompt

2) Go to ME 2 directory

3) Go to software subdirectory

4) Type the following command:



EAAccessInstaller.exe /s/dir "C:\\Program Files\\Electronic Arts\\Mass Effect 2\\binaries"



(With the appropriate path to the ME2 binary directory).
