ssleay.dll file problem
okay where to start...
ive got windows 7 (64 bit) intel core i7-2600 @ 3.4 GHz - 8 GIGS of RAM
AMD Radeon HD 7950 (fully updated)
DirectX 11
so I'm trying to run mass effect one through origin (it was downloaded, so no discs). and it simply does not start.
I go into Program Files(x86) >Origin Games > Mass Effect (folder) and I search for the exe and I find it. I try to run it and i get this error:
"Missing required file "ssleay32.dll""
So I search for this file and voila it is in Mass Effect Binaries folder where it should be. (Still not working)
I've tried re-installing twice (once in safe mode). I have tried running the game AND origin in compatibility mode and that does not work. I cannot access compatibility mode through the game either because either it won't launch or I get the error.
so to sum up my problems:
1. When I run the game through origin it does not start, nothing happens.
2. When I try to run the exe in the Mass Effect folder I get the error message "missing file required ssleay32.dll"
3. When I try to run the update it says Mass Effect is not installed. (It is lol.)
Help plz. Thanks
