Mass effect 2 help!
Hey everyone. I’m reaching out to you in hopes that I can get this resolved. I reached out to ea support through Twitter ang they referred me to hq. I’m having issues with the mass effect trilogy aga...
I have tried compatibility mode and i let the system do it automatically, so it picks certain options based on what’s happening on the screen. As far as running it on other versions of windows, my current pc is the only pc I’ve ran this game on. But I have applied settings on it, so it could be tested with older versions. But doing that hasn’t fixed anything. I’ve also ran it under administrator.
But as far as running it under directX 11, I have not tried that. Main reason I haven’t done that is because, my computer already had lag with each game, so there’d be more of a lag if I roll back to the previous version. When the game worked, the directX version I have currently, seemed to be fine.
Hi @trevgrad08
You wrote you already tried all steps we did to get the game running the last time, the steps in this post?
According to your DxDiag you replaced the HP W2071d Monitor with a different one. Is it the HP W2071d monitor that does not work anymore?
The new Monitor works without problems?
Correct. The HP W2071d monitor is the one that went out. It’s newer than my original hp monitor w1907 which I had my vista pc on. The one that went out, is also a widescreen monitor. The w1907 is standard. So it really made no sense why the newer one went out first. After it went out, I began searching for monitors online. A few days later I found out from my uncle who’s an audio video technician/salesman, that the hp brand is just a crappy made model for monitors. He said that if I wanted a long lasting monitor, price range I’d be looking at a few hundred bucks for one. The only issue I’m having with the working monitor is the occasional lag from the game. Otherwise it works pretty well.
So to make that clear, now, after the problem reappear, you created a second user account and the game did run there?
It was suggested that I create a user account to see if the game would run under the user account. The game did load correctly under the user account. So after it worked, I transferred my saves files onto that user account, so I wouldn’t lose my progress. When I tried loading the game under the user account, the game didn’t work. So I wiped all the files out and started from scratch with the games, the game didn’t load even after I deleted all the files. So I’m stuck at this point.
