Hello Everyone,

  I have my solution that worked for this problem, so I hope it will work for you too.

 

  1. Navigate to where ever your copy of Mass Effect is located and find you MassEffect.exe file (eg:  .../Origin/Mass Effect/Binaries/MassEffect.exe)
  2. Right click on the MassEffect.exe and then click on "Properties"
  3. Click on the "Compatibility" tab
  4. Click on "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" and then select "Windows 7" from the drop down menu
  5. On the same page then click on the "Run this program as an administrator" box
  6. Click "Apply" and then "OK"
  7. Play Mass Effect

This fix worked for me so I hope it works for you all...  Enjoy killing Ash (or Kaiden)... who really cares as long as you bro out with Wrex
