Mass Effect 2 Legendary Edition Crashes On Launch

@Lashenator  What happens when you choose ME2 from the menu, as in, what do you see?  Please post a screenshot of any error message you get.

Please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post as well.

I'm playing on PC, with a nvidia card with drivers up to date and a SSD...

I had a rough start with ME2 : I couldn't change the resolution  !!
I had to manually change the gameconfig.ini file in order to force the resolution... boring !

Now I can't start the mission with Archangel : I start to speak with him and... crash !

it's sad, because I love the games (it's really working great.. when those games work ... no more pain in the bottom with mods...). 
i'll wait for another patch ...

hey thanks for the reply, the game boots but crashes in the opening load screen, the orange moving one, i cant get a screen grab of it form some reason, here is the dxdiag

@Lashenator 

• Go here.
• Download the "vc_redist.x64.exe" and the "vc_redist.x86.exe".

• Run the "vc_redist.x86.exe" as administrator. (Right click on the exe > Run as administrator.)

• Restart the computer.

• Run the "vc_redist.x64.exe" as administrator. (Right click on the exe > Run as administrator.)

• Restart the computer.

• Test.

Hey, thanks for the help but unfortunately this didnt fix the issue either ☹️

I finished Mass Effect 1 LE and then proceeded to play part 2 but the game crashes and takes me back to the launcher

Holy Crap! That worked thank you so much, does that mean my save is corrupted and I have to start over or is there some way to retrieve it? I think I'm just going to start again anyway.

@Lashenator 

One of the saves is corrupted, most likely the one you tried to load.

The only way to find out if other saves are ok is by trial and error.

You're welcome! Have fun gaming.

as also able to repeat the issue. I was trying to add my save back and the Gamer Profile File is the one causing the crashes.
