I am writing from enemy territory: windows 8 (I have it in dualboot) I've
installed game the same method as on wine and trying to run it in compability
to windows 7 and windows xp. it doesn't work! lol XD

I've searched for "SystemInformation.xml" and "BioWare" dir after install - no
such file and dir
After unsuccessful attempt to run game: exists BioWare\Mass
Effect\Config\BioEngine.ini
Completely the same as on wine!
I will try to "talk" with 1C's support about it o_O

But then I've tried to launch Binaries/MassEffect.exe directly. On wine it
threw an exception in graphical mode (I will post a screenshot later) and I've
decided that MassEffectLauncher.exe is real launcher of the game and I
shouldn't run MassEffect.exe directly, but I was wrong! o_O

When I've launched Binaries/MassEffect.exe directly (all compabilities to other
windows versions is off) it suddenly launched Binaries/protect.exe and say to
me: "we should install protection first", I've pressed "ok", disc was verified
and game starts just fine! (>_<) I am real angry now

You can close this issue but dont delete it. I will show it to 1C support and
its shameful "developers"
