mass effect starting problem (Vista)

I installed the gameand got to the start upmenu with play, support, uninstall, ect. I click play then after about 10 seconds of me staring at my desktop the window pops up saying "Mass Effect" has stopped working. What am I doing wrong? System requirements says that I can run it on recommended settings and I own Vista. Thanx for any help.

did you get the latest patch is it cd or digital

I have downloaded the patch and it is a cd. I also uninstalled it and reinstalled the game as well. Still stuck

Try to update your video driver.

This is a problem with Vista...I just had it the other day. To fix it: right click on the launcher and go to properties, click on "Compatibility" and at the bottom check the box "Run this program as an administrator", if you click on the button below that there is another run as administrator check box to click so all users can play it as well.

My drivers are updated already and I only have one account on my laptop. I just tried installing it again to no help
