DirectX Error upon BF4 install and TItanfall launch
I purchased BF4 for PC a really long time ago, and I have had nothing BUT problems since I first installed it. This week I had the courage to try and fix it. Last night I was actually able to launch the game and play it on PC for the first time in 3 months. Then, this morning when I tried to join a server, the game would be running in the task manager, but would open no window, and the Battlelog would have the infinite "initializing" or "Joining server" bar. I've had this exact problem since shortly after my purchase. So in an attempt to remedy the issue, I scanned the internet for solutions. Trying the 2012 install under the redist was useless. After getting the error: "DirectX Setup Error: An internal error occurred" when trying to repair the game and running the DXSetup in the game files, I attempted to flat out re install the game. After downloading the game data, it will not install, giving the same DirectX error message each time I press "install" in the Origin window. Today I also tried to launch Titanfall, which gave me the same error, just replacing "BF4" with Titanfall."
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance, all help is very much appreciated.
