First time install of Mass Effect 3 on Windows 10 64-bit.
Nvidia Legacy driver installed.
Latest Nvidia Driver installed.
This *** still happens. Incredible.
"Repair" idea does NOT work (anymore). Uninstalling PhysX to install older Nvidia driver versions for "a game" is out of the question.
UPDATING your code, would be the appropriate solution, since you are still selling this game and I just bought it.
And all these closed forum threads telling people "issue is 'solved'" are ... a nice marketing gag, but false.
Fix your game.
It's not a Program code issue but an installation problem on specific systems.
Repair the PhysX software in "Programs and features" > reboot > test
If that don't helps, go to your "<drive>:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\__Installer\physx\redist" folder and run the "PhysX-9.11.1107-SystemSoftware.msi" > reboot > test
If that still don't works, download the NVIDIA PhysX software stand-alone from here > run the installer as Admin > reboot > test
None of the "solutions" worked :<
What exactly did you tried?
I tried several things.
-Reinstalling drivers
-Repairing Physx
-Reinstalling Physx seperately
-Reinstalling and repairing game
Nothing seems to help.
- This worked for me I have been trying to get the game working for months, before it wouldn't show any error message but had a error report in reliability manager but tonight I decided to try the game it brought up this error with PhysX I did the step of installing it from the game directory and without even restarting the PC it booted right up into the main title screen. Its been months since I have even got that far.
Uninstalling PhysX from "Programs and features"
then installing "<drive>:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\__Installer\physx\redist\PhysX-9.11.1107-SystemSoftware.msi"
Worked for some unknown reason. Maybe the issue is that the game is looking for this specific version?
