Mass Effect 2 PC graphic bug?
Everything on this game works great except on cutscenes and Shepard. It first starts when Miranda is talking in the cutscene. She has black triangles all over her face. Then I see it again during the "Create Character" part. Then anytime I look at the squad and look at Shepard his face is completely black, save his eyes.
I have imported my ME1 character.
Both ME1 and ME2 are retail.
Help?
System Specs:
Windows Vista 32-Bit
Processor: AMD Turion(tm) X2 Dual-Core Mobile RM-70 2.00GHz
The computer is a Toshiba Satellite L305D
Graphics Card: ATI Radeon 3100
Mass Effect 1 ran like a dream. I never had a single problem with anything on it and it was on default graphics settings.

It's that ATI Radeon 3100 integrated chip which isn't up to the task. Surprises me you don't have more problems than that when playing Mass Effect 2...
Must be the laptop's native screen resolution of 1280x800 which saves you.
Anyway, you should go into the game's menu and lower the graphical qualities a bit and all should be fine...

The GT 220 is not a great card but shouldn't have too many problems running Mass Effect 2. I'm repeating what has been said already but the reason I feel like answering is to react to those who recommended Can You Run It (System requirements Lab): That website is extremely inaccurate and is almost always wrong about graphics cards. The biggest problem is that it only looks at features and RAM but not clockspeed. It also thinks a higher model number means the card is better. That's why it would, for instance, consider a Geforce 8400 better than a 7800, which is completely wrong.
