I'm afraid your HP ZBook is so far below Andromeda's system requirements that you won't be able to run the game on it.
Ah that's a shame, I'm still surprised it doesn't even try to open though since I've had other demanding games like baldur's gate 3 open but just be really laggy. Also I think legendary edition has similar requirements to andromeda and yet I've been able to play all of that fine.
Asking this because even though my comp doesn't meet the requirements shouldn't it atleast attempt to open the game? There are other games I've been able to open and play like dragon age inquisition and mass effect legendary edition and my computer hasn't met the requirements for those either so surely andromeda should atleast open as well
Edit: So not sure why but somehow I've managed to get the game to actually open through frosty mod manager. Guessing my issue was related to ea app being a * or smthn as in my frosty settings I have platform launch disabled and that's what let the game launch.
Edit 2: That also seems to have made it work when launching through EA as well so I have no clue what was wrong
Never mind it's broken again when launching from ea. Can anyone help or explain what might be going on? I'm pretty sure it isn't just my computer not meeting the system requirements as it's definitely capable of running it, it just gives up when launching from the ea app or desktop shortcut
I have the same problem, it starts about a week ago. Deleted it with Revo and trying to reinstall. Hope this will help!
UPD. Deinstallation doesn't work.
It seems that this is issue with Windows' Security update. My solution (Windows 11):
1. Open Exploit protection.
2. Select the "Program settings" tab.
3. Click "Add Program to customise"
4. Type MassEffectAndromeda.exe
5. Turn off "Force randomisation for images (Mandatory ASLR) by enabling Override system settings and moving the slider to the off position (see the attached image).
6. Click Apply.
