Mass Effect Forum

Reading the other posts, I see that this white screen upon loading is familiar. I can launch the game but then it locks up on this screen. The fix others have recommended is using an older version of crossover games....where do I find this?
I have Mac OSX with the 10 version of crossgames.
I am terribly computer illiterate so a lot of what I have been reading is greek. Any help someone can recommend or did I just waste my money?

Hi,

Login to your Codeweavers account here, and go to the following page ..;

You will find the older releases of Crossover in the 'Archived Downloads'
area...

Cheers!

thank you so much for the quick reply!
But I think the downgrade killed my computer.... I can't get anything crossgame related to run....including the program itself.
I wish I was better at computers to figure out what happened....

Hi again,

That...shouldn't have happened ; it's quite acceptable to have 2 versions
of Crossover Games installed on the Mac, and it should've worked...hmmm...

What Mac and version of OSX are you running?

Remember, you can always email info@codeweavers.com for official support &
help (these forums are just users helping users), and, do not worry about the
premise of having 'wasted your money' -- Codeweavers have a very good refund
policy if you can't get things to work.

This may be beyond the scope of your experience, but, in such situations I
would remove Crossover (Games) as detailed on the following page;

..(yes, I know it's for CXOffice but the procedure is the same, just the names
differ)...and once done, reinstall Crossover Games...

Cheers!

I have OSX Leopard. I think the problem is that the program isn't letting the individual versions stand alone. Whenever I switch from one to the other, it won't let it open unless I update those files into that version. Sadly, no matter what I do, the icon will pop up in my dock but then won't do anything once clicked which is the only way I know to access steam and/or the game.
I think this transfer of files is what's confusing the system. I'm going to piddle with the system for a few more days then bother the poor guys in tech support.

THanks for all your help by the way! You are a great help to the mentally challenged!
