Mass Effect 3 Message Board  

Regarding the Trainer 1.1.5427.4 (DVD RETAIL), Massive War Assets (War Readiness),....

After scanning through the other threads I could not find anyone else who posted about having this issue:

Download Trainer--> Extract to Desktop--> Open trainer .exe--> Open ME3.exe--> navigate to "Main Menu"--> press F1--> 3 Second Pause--> Game Freezes and I receive a Windows generic "This application is not responding" error for ME3 which forces me to close the application.

I have checked and verified that the Version of Mass Effect 3 which I am running is in fact 1.1.5427.4. I have no doubt that I downloaded the correct version of the trainer (not the origin version, the DVD version) to compliment the version of the game that I have.

I have the Collectors Edition of the game which was purchased from Gamestop and installed via DVD's. I am running Origin in online mode, and I did not put the Trainer .exe in the program folder... and I am not sure if any of these have a negative effect on the Trainer itself.

I obviously have no idea what I'm doing wrong even after some rudimentary troubleshooting, and have not yet been able to find a successful resolution already posted on the forums (even though I have found many people posting that they are having the same problem, no one says that any of the recommended solutions worked for them). So if I could get some assistance in the matter, I would appreciate it.

Thank you

From origin, do this.... right click on the ME3 listed and goto repair install and then check for update, there was a 2nd amended release of the main binary for 1.1.5427.4 (one that didn't use the date check).

Then try the trainer again (failing that if it updates try the origin trainer).

Use the ORIGIN trainer.

Like that boss man said use the Origin one. I am and its running fine but with a few glitches. But nothing major

thanks! now it works!!!!!
