Re: Game crashes in random spots

I played for about 3 hours without interruption without using space bar to skip and waiting until their done talking to chose an answer, then it crashed. This time I got the last error message and one that said:

"MassEffect.exe - No Disk

There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into the drive

\Device\Harddisk1\DR1."

Ugh. I mean, the interruption before watching someone die on Virmire is nice, but no thanks.

    I experienced game crashes with dragon age origins and solved the problem by setting the affinity to only 1 CPU. I'm not sure wether this would help, but trying can't hurt. Open up the task manager, go to the processes tab and right click on masseffect.exe Then click on "Set affinity..." This opens a new dialog window in which you can select the amount of CPU's the game is allowed to use. Deselect all and choose one. Hope this helps :D
