Re: [PC] Mass Effect 1 not responding after 3 minutes

Hi, @ChaoticMote you write that you tried disabling overlays but did you try enabling only EA App in game overlay? It helped me in the past with ME1 freezing (though on Win 10 and Nvidia card). If it doesn't help maybe try moving ME1 to a drive different than Windows is installed on.

    Thanks for the quick reply, I enabled the EA app overlay and so far it hasn't crashed in 20 minutes! I'll play around some more and see if it remains stable.

    I usually disable client overlays since they often cause issues (for example the Origin overlay causing poor performance in ME3), so this would be a bizarre solution but I'll take it! Hopefully it stays that way. Thanks again!
