Re: mass effect 2 crashes randomly

I hadn't even considered this as an option. After disabling the overlay I was able to run it for over 7 hours without any crash what so ever. Thank you so much!

How do I do this?
I too is having problems with the game randomly crashing on me, and I'm at a loss on what to do now ☹️

Tried this and the random game freeze keeps happening.  I've played this game so many times, this is the first borked playthrough with this odd freezing; once it starts it continues to happen at the same spots.  It starts with sound scramble then the entire screen freezes and none of the keyboard keys can remedy things until I ALT+CTRL+DEL and load the Task Manager and close the game out from there.  Task Manager shows a running game with low CPU and memory usage.

Please create a DxDiag in text file format and post it with your next reply.

If you use Windows 7 also go to your Reliability monitor > Press the Windows key and "R" at the same time and copy and paste or type "perfmon /rel" (without the quotes) in the new Window > hit “ENTER” and look if it has entries for the game you have trouble with.

If yes double click at the last entry for the game executable, copy the info to the clipboard, and save it to a text file.

You can attach the DxDiag text file you created (and the “Reliability monitor” text file as well) to your post in the “Reply” window with the “Choose File” button.
