It amazes me how little people actually bother to read... is it really that difficult? The only thing I didn't bother to explain was how to make the -nomovie shortcut and where to get the green screen load biks. Other then that, however, I explained the entire process. So if you're not getting it, try reading it again, it's in there.

I found a solution for people with the freezing problem at the selection of new game, unfortunatly this only works for duo or quad core users.

1) Go to "Start"

2) Type in "run"

3) Type in "msconfig"

4) Go to the "Boot" tab

5) Select "Advanced Options"

6) At this point the startup number of processors should show "1" and should be unable to be changed.

7) Uncheck "Number of Processors"

8) Check "Detect HAL"

9) Click "Ok", then click "Apply"

10) Reboot your PC.



If all goes according to plan, when you reload, you should be able to do this:



11) Go to "Start"

12) Type in "run"

13) Type in "msconfig"

14) Go to the "Boot" tab

15) Select "Advanced Options"

16)
You should again see the start up number of processors. However, this
time when you click the drag down menu you should be able to select the
proper number of cores (4 in my case).

17) Click "Ok", then click "Apply".

credit goes to Bluewolf35948. This worked for me hope it works for you guys, im able to get in and have been playing fine so far. Sorry i couldnt help those with single core problems. Much love, bluewolf said dont forget him when you name your first-born's.

This will solve my problem. Somehow, I'm only running off of one core. However, there is no detect hal option for XP. Is there any way to do this on XP? Sorry, but google is surpisingly unhelpful.

The solution to your problem can be found in the Original Thread.  I don't know where it is in there, almost 60 pages of information, but they do explain how to fix it on XP.

Having same problems with IFF fix thing, It just shows the loading screen, where the elevator goes to engineering level, and then black screen, with ambient noises, I did everything step by step and still... would apreciate any help.

Edit: Got past the IFF thing, I think the problem was with skipping the dialog thing, Cheers Spiro!!

I have dual-core cpu (core2duo E8200) and both core enabled, but still have problem with IFF (access to galaxy map cause black screen). What should i do to fix this bug?

I found a way for changing "DoSync=true" under "[BIOGame.Movies]" in "coalesced.ini" to "DoSync=false", by changing "LM_RequiresUserInputToContinue=false" to true, what gives me another Char to use in SAME SECTION!! ... but that changes nothing. "TimeBetweenSyncChecks=9.9" does also change nothing.
I'll try something different ... something with syncs ...

@FreakySmiley

Im at work so I cant tinker with coalesced.ini at the moment, but look what I found at page 3 of this magnificent forum:



http://social.biowar...06/index/834703



Its a editor for coalesced.ini! There even is a manual how to configure that .ini file manually without worrying about character sizes. So try this method when tinkering with coalesced.ini.

[Iron Ranger]

I'm having 1 core problems as, hoping BW produces a patch. Buying a socket939 cpu or a new comp isn't the answer for me.

Hi all,



I would like to tell everyone here my case and maybe there is a soloution,

I have a problem like everyone here, Stuck on the begining of the loading screen,

if i watch the intro movie i can get past the loading screen but the movie after and

the gameplay it self is very laggy and unplayble.



I am using Windows XP with all the system requirments met,

and my processor is a multi-core :

Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU E6550 @ 2.33GHz

Intel® Core™2 Duo CPU E6550 @ 2.33GHz

I am not too confident to download from any untrusted site.



And since i have XP and a dual-core, perhaps there is a soloution for me.



Thanks allot for any help.

[ironbluefox]

in my previous post on page switching out the .dll was working but I installed RADtools and now my solution no longer works my comp is a bit old but has no problem on any other newer games cept mass effect 2.



Im going to try playing the damn game on my labtop cause its newer then my comp and is a ALX alienware machine hopefully it'll work there this isnt the first time ive had a problem like this the last time it was the first call of jaurez good luck to you all and hope these issues get resolved soon.

After doing some googling and getting some help from a computer friend, I enabled the second core of my dual core on XP. If nothing else works, go into your BIOS and go to the chipset features or a menu where your RAM and CPU configs are in the same place. You should see CPU Core 0 and CPU Core 1 etc there and enabled/disabled next to them. I feel silly because all I had to do was enable my friggin dual core.

As I wrote above, you can get problem and with dual core CPU too (IFF mission).

[MajFauxPas]

I used the -nomoviestartup fix and the game works perfectly. Only missed a little story at the intro so far.

[bulletslaughter]

what would you tell me if i say; i have a dualcore but stuttering during the video at the beginning with miranda, sometimes the lips arent moving... and during the game there is also stuttering...



3.0ghz c2d

2gig ram

5750 radeon

winxp sp3



any suggetions? need a good tipp... cant wait to play

[Alex05663]

Does anyone know when they will release the patch?

I could do that too, but then I really feel that I'm missing so much of this fantastic game. I try to stay away from ME2 until there is a solution or I got the money to do a upgrade .

[Templar_Highlord]

I am also experiencing stuttering, which continues on whenever I use a mass relay to jump to another system, hit a openeing or finishing cinematic with missions and every now and again, right in the middle of a firefight. I have a single core, AMD 3300+ processor, NVidia GeForce 8400 video card, 2 gigs of ram and Windows XP

[samsbutterscotch]

Same here. I have a dual core, my system recognizes both, the game's Configuration tool recognizes both, Mass Effect 1 runs flawlessly (don't know if this last part's related), yet the game stutters once every 4-5 minutes, even after applying the green screen fix...

It's not that bad. You just miss some videos but you still have the dialogs and choices. I did this and I never had a big problem understanding the story.

Guess I will have it give it a go then.

Edit: OMG. After using the -nomoviestartup workaround, the game works like a charm! everything goes smooth and plays nice! Man...only the movies are out. Well, I going through it a second time anyway so I might as well wait for a patch or do a upgrade in the time being. Thanks guys for letting me try this.

I might sound stupid but I dont know if I have a Single-Core or a Multi-Core.

How do i check it?

If you go to my computer and then right click and go down to properties you can look at general and it will tell you how many cores you have

[vesperalsage]

Ok her is my problem i just got this computer about 2-3 moths ago it is a five thousand dollar computer now o would figure that it would be core duo but it does not seem to be and because since i am running of the winows 7 platform i can not seem to get the non-movie fix to work. Any suggestions?

[OLD IT GUY]

HI Guys, I appreciate all the imput here about the SINGLE CORE issues. I have a pretty hopping System ( AMD  of course) . I had the freeze ups on load screen, the work around helped. BUT, I have noticed that even set at ( 800X 600) Some of the dialog scenes lag, but others dont.  I can run MASS EFFECT 1 Full out ok, not sure all that they changed. But for me, I dont care if it looks Crisp, I want to play thru. And I saw no reason to now use the engine or stuff like they had in 1.

Any other ideas for the Latter parts of the game for Lag time ijn conversations and all?? Worked awesome on wake up level and then once we hit " illusive Man " lags ville

[reed czarny]

ok i have a uniprocessor is that the same as a single core processor and also my game keeps on freezeing at when i click new game and then click male charecter on ME2 then when i go to loading screen it freezes/ can anyone help me plz email me at redsolives@yahoo.com

[Qwinn1234]

I'm also having trouble using Spiro's IFF workaround, as I believe 3 other people stated. I have all the original movies installed properly. I followed the steps to the letter. I get the cutscene where you're told to take everyone on the shuttle. I see the loading screen graphic where the elevator drops down. And then, black screen. Not hearing sounds like someone else said, just black screen.

"Edit: Got past the IFF thing, I think the problem was with skipping the dialog thing, Cheers Spiro!!"

I know there's almost no chance of your coming back to this thread now that you're fixed, but... skipping what dialog thing? I didn't skip any dialog
