    @SimoneKiller Is Origin running? How are you launching the game? Try doing so from within the Origin client rather than a desktop shortcut and let us know how you get on. 

    Thanks.

    It's always the same error. We all start it from the ******* Origin-Launcher and still the problem appears. Some can fix it with reinstalling Origin, some can fix with installing on another drive and some get it never fixed and are frustrated that EA can't work on it. That's the circle of life.

    PS: Yes, we tried starting Origin as Admin and we tried starting ME3 as Admin and we use the newest nvidia-drivers and are using win7 64bit, and we tried a cleanboot. You sold software, that just seems to not work on every system and noone knows, who is chosen to play that game on PC and how. We should ask that guys from Supernatural. They know about mysteries.

    Hey the killer for me is I completed my ME3 game with one toon back in 2012. Now when I try to run it (after re-install) I get this stupid message.

    Doesn't happen with any of my other 'origin' based games.

    @sbof77

    Try to repair the game (in Origin > my games > right click ME3 > Repair Game)

    If that not works, please report back.
