Bought disks, installed three times, repaired install and still wont actually go to play screen after pressing play on icon. Just goes to cloud recover and then nothing. Do I take it back its very frustrating.
Have you tried any of the steps described in the other topics in this forum on this very issue?
0. Disable "Sync with cloud" (at least until everything else is working correctly.)
1. Apply the 1.02 patch (required for Win7/Win8).
2. Set the game to run in "Windows XP (SP3) Compatibility" mode.
3. Set EA/Origin to "Run as Administrator".
The link is in the post: [Information] Mass Effect 1 and Win7 or Win8 - You need patch 1.02 to play, which is pinned to the top of this forum.
