Doors and some objects won't open/activate

Question

On my second run-through on ME 2, with upload of previous ME 2 character save. First run through went fine, but since restarting this game, I've had trouble with doors, some PDA's, some safes and other interactive objects. The orange target box is around them all, but most of the time the incomplete bold blue square-outline does NOT show up. I'm presently stuck in the Comm room after having acquired Grunt. &nbsp;On PC, Win 7 Pro. Tilde not opening console command so i can't just tlc my way out of the room. HELP???? &nbsp;PLEASE???

This can be caused by low framerates. What is your framerate in this game? (You can check this with Fraps.)

tried using Fraps to help with it, but it didn't change anything. Comm room in Normandy is most buggy, and datapads/wall safes/etc in beginning mission don't automatically high light.

HOWEVER, I got it to work by standing over the objects (or in front of ) and pressing Esc key then quickly trying to activate the object. Most of the time this works. Not frame rate issue, because for most of the game it turned out didn't do it. Think a bug. Otherwise, made it through to end of game, and on 3 now.

Fraps doesn't help with it. You use it to monitor the framerate so that the problem can be diagnosed. Same way an MRI doesn't cure brain cancer.
