    Thanks for all the quick responses! I installed new directx and made sure clock and time were set right, but was still having the same error. I actually was googling the error and found this site.

    http://www.win2008r2workstation.com/xinput9_1_0-dll/

    I think it may of had something to do with windows home server, but maybe not. Anyways, I installed this in about 30 seconds and BF4 and BF3 now both work flawlessly. To anyone with this error, use xinput.zip and bam! Thanks.

    Hi,

    you could try to reinstall DirectX and V++. You can find the installers in your BF4 game directory.

    __Installer\directx\redist (DXSETUP.exe)

    __Installer\vc\vc2012Update3\redist (both files)

    Since it's a license error, do a couple of things, check to make sure that your PC's date and time is correct, then log out of your PC origin client and then log back in with the Origin account under which your purchased BF4. If that doesn't work I recommend right clicking the BF4 icon and selecting repair to see if that clears up the error.

    Hi,

    highly probable that is was the OS. Home server 2011 is based on Windows Server 2008 R2.

    Thanks for posting back, I will mark as your post as solution.

    I have a similar error. I downloaded xinput and ran install.cmd as an administrator but the cmd prompt states that the file "infinst.exe" is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file. "infinst.exe" is in the x64 folder, along with the files that the cmd prompt also states that it can not find... -_-
