The game Frezze!

I have a quad core, thought using only one core would work but it still locks up, also I have an 8800 card, I turned my bloom off and it still locks up.

I had the same problem, and after much internet trawling and scratching of my head, I fixed it. I remembered how I got Mass Effect to run on my PC, and it was by disabling my DVD software. I use power DVD, but it interfered with the game. So i ctrl+alt+del it and closed Pdvd down manually (Also closed down the itunes and ipod programs too, so might have been them instead, although i doubt it). Now there's no more menu/inventory lag and the game is 100x better for it!

Hope this works for everyone else too!

You're quite welcome! Puzzles me as to why DVD software can conflict with certain games to such an extent, but meh

it's a game copyright protection issue...yay copyright protection ! does nothing to stop pirating but gives us legit purchasers problems & headaches.....YAY oh YAY !!....

pfft...for the love of Pete.....these days, if we want a game to work properly....it's starting to look like we have to get a pirated one...
