Can't install game. repeatedly getting DirectX install error
I downloaded the game and upon install received a DirectX error and could not install. 3 more attempts, 4 more NO GOs. Deleted DX temp file folders and I get the same issue. Running latest version of SX and version 347.52 Nvidia drivers. If anyone can figure it out or has a fix, post it. Here is my error file:
