Lighting glitch in ME1
Hello, I have this lighting glitch in ME1 while I am on the Citadel. You can see it on the screen. My laptop is MSI Apache Pro, i7-6700HQ (2.6 GHz, 3.5 GHz Turbo, 6 MB Cache), RAM 16 GB DDR4 (2133 ...

Or better have this pastebin to my dxdiag 😉

Community Admin@Fred_vdp Ah, good to know, and something worth keeping an eye on going forward, especially for a game like this where the min specs to get it running are so old.
@Deyanire86 Thanks, that setup looks mostly fine. there is a slightly newer Nvidia driver available (364.72 as opposed to your 364.51), but I don't think it'll be a critical factor in a 8-9 year-old game.
Are you using a Steam or Origin copy?
If Origin can you right-click the game panel then choose the Repair option. After this finishes please check agian.
If you're on Steam can you try the Verify Integrity of Game Cache step?

If the issue persists, can you try swapping to Windowed mode and see if it does the same thing?

I am using Origin copy. I did repaired ME1 and unfortunately no change ☹️
I tried different screen res and windowed mode - still same glitch. Just to add - it is not like this light is constant, but it appears from time to time on scenes where it should not.On the other hand I tried ME2 on my laptop and I had no problems with appearing out of nowhere lights, but when I have scenes where there is a lot of dark - the shadows start to be black and there is huge contrast between light and dark (eg. when you have scene with Miranda and Jacob in the shuttle in the begining of ME2 - everything is too dark) ☹️
I might exagerrated with buying this laptop - seems like it is too meaty ☹️

@Deyanire86 There's no such thing as "too meaty" 😉
Back on your issue, can you try a clean reinstall of your drivers? Corrupted/damaged drivers can be a problem, and they won't always be detected when merely updating them.
Thanks.- Approved
Hey guys,
I've got the same issue and also tried a lot of thinks. Also I opened a ticket at EA and all my Origin-stuf and dxdiag were fine. Also I just have a new installation of win 10 and so no old drivers.
My Hardware:
CPU: I5-6600k
Mainboard: Z170A Gamimg M7
GPU: MSI GTX 970
I made a short video from this light feature ;P
