Re: Mass Effect 1 will not start on Windows 10

Hi Malsell,

This seems rather odd, When you launch me1 does the program executable stay in memory when it fails to run? Also have you tried older driver versions for your graphics card? It sounds like an incompatibility issue to me. I'm not well versed in the latest amd hardware, Back when I used an Athlon cpu some games that worked fine on intel cpu's just refused to run at all.Also Do you have the latest build of windows 10 (1709 os build 16299.248)? to check that type winver in the search box.

other than that reinstall direct x 9 and check its working properly. Also go in to me1's config program and try different settings see if that makes a difference.

    I keep windows updated and this is the same driver I installed before I installed the game.  I will try to reinstall DX9, but it is working fine in other games.
