After Installation of Mass Effect, Having trouble running

This problem is for all 3 games of Masseffect. I recently purchased the Trilogy Package from Gamestop, which includes the Pin Number to digitaly download from Origin. So i used that and all games are downloaded onto my desktop and into origin. When i hit Play on mass Effect, it will not open the game, but says "(Saving data to cloud) or whatever" For faster response on this, subject, please email me at [edit: email address removed]. Id be very grateful if someone would help me with this.

    We neither send anyone a response via eMail nor do we want to have you publish that information here in a public forum.  We are a gamer to gamer self-help kind of place here.  

    I will say this, avoid the Cloud.  The ME-1 and ME-2 games pre-date that, and it just screws things up when you add that complication to games that weren't designed for it.  .

    The cloud isn't the culprit in this issue, run Origin as an admin by right clicking the Origin icon on your destop and selecting "run as administrator".  Then install and update ME1 and it will work after that without having to run Origin as an admin.   I did this last night and it solved the very problem that you described.  I run Win7 64 bit.
