I bought a new gaming pc. Win 10 Home 64 bit. I installed ME1 from disc. It would not launch. I uninstalled it and then installed the download version on Origin. It works fine and it even gave me Pinnacle Station. A few years ago I downloaded BDtS free installer. This time when I activated it the installer says it cannot find ME and shuts down. It doesn't even ask me where to look. The game is on a different drive from my C: Drive. Any help would be appreciated.
Edit: Turns out BDtS was automatically installed with the Origin Download version. I managed to find my previous Saves on my old gaming PC. I transferred them to my new gaming PC and the BDtS mission played normally.
Aside. The ME Origin Download has no Configuration Utility so I cannot choose 1920 x 1080 as my screen resolution. The in-game graphics settings do not include HD or UHD resolutions.

@GenObiOne; Look in this folder "C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect\Binaries" for "MassEffectConfig.exe".

You can choose 1080p in game.
Here you can see the double arrow you have to click to go to the higher resolutions.

Thanks. The arrows looked like they were grayed out so I didn't bother with them. Now running the game in crystal clear 4K.

The ME1 DLCs are part of the main download of the game now.
If you still have a Disk installation you can find the downloads here.
