PC - Mass Effect 2 has stopped working error

When I try to play Mass Effect 2, it tries to start but says it encountered an error and to close the program. I've reinstalled it a bunch of times. I tried running the launcher and exe file in compatibility mode and as a admin. It still doesn't work. I've tried running it through Steam and Origin. I've uninstalled and reinstalled both of those. I've tried running with the sound off and in window mode. Nothing has worked.
