So I did a reinstall of windows 7 this morning and am reinstalling everything from scratch. Now my pc recognizes both my main ssd and my E drive which is my secondary hard drive. But when I installed Dragon age Inquisition from origins to it, I can't find the game. Before the installation, I checked to make sure I get a desktop icon but I don't get that either. Steam games seem to work. I get a desktop icon when i begin installing a game to the E drive. Also there was no problem with dragon age before I reinstalled windows. I installed it in my 2nd storage just fine. HELP ME

Did you install the game before or after the reformat?

If before, you'll need to install the game again for Origin to recognise the file path. Or you might be able to point Origin to the files via the registry. This is complicated and may not work.

Create a shortcut from the .executable file within the game's DIR and place it on the desktop.
