Leviathan DLC crashing
I'm on the asteroid, just got done repairing the elevator with the drone, but as soon as I get to the upper floor & run out into the hallway, the game locks up. I've tried restarting the game, resta...

Alternatively, if anyone can confirm that their setup does not have this issue, might I perhaps send someone my save file and have them progress beyond the crash point for me?
I was all set to confirm that I DO NOT have this problem on either my Win7 or Win8 machine, until I saw "ATI graphics" in your post.
Seriously?!? How old is your rig? AMD bought ATI in 2006. So, ummmm... even before the first game was released.
Not sure any "ATI" gpu should be expected to handle ME3. That you got as far as "Leviathan" is actually kinda' cool!

You don't have to be so condesending, Thandal. I'm running an Nvidia card with an intel CPU and still have this issue. I firmly believe that the file for the DLC that EA is sending out is corrupted. This issue has happened since around January 2014 for the few people that have reported it. I would wager if you, Thandal, hit the repair button for Leviathan you would encounter the same issue. This is a legitimate problem that psans hardware, as has previously been demonstrated in other threads. The fact that you want to ignore it and pretend like it isn't happening makes you look like the EA brown-noser that you are.
I wasn't being condescending, and I wasn't doubting that the problem occurred. I was simply surprised that any "ATI" gpu was capable of running the game at all.
Repeated crashes at the exact same point are most frequently caused by an invalid instruction; one that either the software, or the hardware can't execute. While it is entirely possible that the file EA provide is faulty and is responsible for the invalid instruction, the fact thousands of other players do not have this problem makes that... questionable.
Whatever the issue is, it is likely specific to the hardware/software combination on the particular machines which encounter it. Hence the request for details about exactly that.
Which you, for example, didn't provide. You simply said that you had an "nVidia card" and "Intel CPU" . Which ones?

It's also worth noting that this is an apple computer that I'm using bootcamp with. Again, the weirdest thing about this glitch is I've played the DLC before on this computer, same setup. My specs are a little lower than most the other people having this problem as well that have posted them, and at every point in the game I'm over 20 fps. I've turned all the graphic and sound settings down as much as I can and it hasn't helped.
Another thint to mention, the guy that started this thread
said it was fixed after hitting repair. For some reason, this is no longer the solution so either that wasn't the real solution or there is something wrong with the files.
