Hello all,
I have the same problem as some people.
I'm on PC and when I start the game I have the launcher and have to choose ME1, ME2 or ME3.
If I choose ME1 or ME2, the game start with a splash screen/artwork of the game and ... nothing. The game never launch more than that.
I can stay 1h on this loading screen without evolution.
So I kill the process...
The strange thing is that ME3 run perfectly !
I put my dxdiag just here.
I tried some solutions without success :
- update all drivers (and change my old graphic card by a new one)
- disable antivirus
- execute Steam, Origin and ME1 as administrator
- repair the game on steam (nothing wrong) and reinstall it (nothing better)
- change option of Origin to don't have it ingame
Maybe do you have some idea for me ?
Thanks a lot
You are running a Windows N version. Did you installed the "Media Feature Pack for N versions of Windows 10"?

@holger1405Still did it, yep.
Seems that my problem is that I have only 2 logical processor.
Sadly my processor don't have hyperthreading option.
Hmmm, buy a new processor ... this game become really expensive - puzzlezaddict4 years agoHero+
@Bataviaz You could find a suitable used processor for under $100 U.S. on Ebay; I don't know where you live, but other countries' prices are usually not too different. As an example:

I know it's not ideal, but it's better than having to build or buy an entirely new computer.
On the other hand, if you're looking at playing more demanding games in the future, you might prefer to save the money to invest in an upgrade down the line.
