    Default Mass effect blue screen

    i have bought Mass Effect yesterday and i have been playing it since with no crashes and with a very good fps and i am already loving the game but today i tried to start the game and before the Bioware logo it appeared a blue screen and restarted my computer, now every attempt to play it the blue screen shows up, i have installed Windows service pack 3 and the latest nvidia driver but still i cant play it, i am suicidal over here people, i have found some people getting it to work by downgrading its driver to older ones but i dont want to do that, so how do i fix it?

    thanks alot in advance

But Demetrius will come to my aid." This was his hope to the last, and to the last he kept watching eagerly for his son; then a whole cloud of javelins were let fly at him and he fell.

    I have approximate answers and possible beliefs, and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I’m not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don’t know anything about. But I don’t have to know an answer. I don’t feel frightened by not knowing.

    Don't worry about that - if ME1 runs on your computer, so should ME2. Despite the noticeable improvements in the graphics department it actually seems to run better then ME1 as far as I can tell (relative to the better graphics of course).
