Andrea, can you tell us what happens when you try to start Mass Effect 2?

Also, it would help to know a couple of things about your computer as Mass Effect 2 requires a dual core processor at 1.8 Ghtz as a minimum. What video card or chip do you have? There is a list of video cards/chips that will not support this game.

Quote:
Supported Chipsets: NVIDIA GeForce 6800 or greater; ATI Radeon X1600 Pro or greater. Please note that NVIDIA GeForce 7300, 8100, 8200, 8300, 8400, and 9300; ATI Radeon HD3200, and HD4350 are below minimum system requirements. Intel and S3 video cards are not officially supported in Mass Effect 2.

Tried last night to install Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island, but NO go. frown

Don't think it likes my win7 Pro 64-bit smile
Did all possible things to get it to work:

- Installed with Admin rights (also the shortcut after)
- Installed with and without AntiVirus etc.
- All Compatibilty settings.
- Latest (working) NVidia graphics driver.
- Changing Country settings (suggested in their forum)
- Downloaded and tried their alternativ Game Launcher (also suggested in their forum)

Guess I have to install on my XP unless someone here have a magic fix laugh

Curiously, I had no problems installing Ghost Pirates of Vooju Island on Win 7, 64 bit, but I was working with a downloaded review copy.

I had no problems with Ghost Pirates on my Win 7 64 bit either, and I have the disk version. Sorry you've been having such trouble, misslilo. frown
