Whenever I try and enter the menu of the game (to upgrade my squad and shit, or to view the codex, map, etc...) I get this message, and the game crashes immediately.



Anyone got a clue what to do? I already reinstalled twice. While reinstalling fixes it, it immediately pops up again when I reboot my computer. I'd rather have a perma solution to this!

Real low.

Update your graphics drivers, make sure they are the most recent. Possibly also update Windows. What version of Windows are you using?

It is through Art, and through Art only, that we can realise our perfection.

It's a 2008 game, so Windows XP is ideal. I use Windows 7. I did some forum digging, and apparently NvIDIA is responsible for being massive dicks and not upgrading their graphics drivers to allow the use of 182.06+ drivers to play Mass effect.

I just found a bioware bug watch for it, so maybe that will work. But then, I am not using Nvidia. We'll see if it works.

The issue is that Mass Effect is a bad game.

Have you updated your Doritos® driver?
