Hi.
There has been over a week since you've answers me, is everything OK?
Still I can't install the game. Any recommend left?
Thanks again and I hope you will help me soon.
Hello gipergosha,
Try following the below instructions.
Restart the computer system.
Do not load the Origin client on startup.
Locate the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 3\__Installer.
Delete the files named Cleanup.dat, Cleanup.exe, Touchup.dat, Touchup.exe, installerdata.xml.
Locate the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\EAInstaller\Battlefield 3.
Delete everything within the above folder.
Now Locate the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin\Origin.exe.
Right click on the Origin.exe and select "Run as Administrator".
Within the Origin client right click the Battlefield 3 title from My Games section and select Repair Install and/or Download.
This should restart the Battlefield 3 Download / Installer.
Note: Origin must be "Run as Administrator".

Hi again,
Sorry to bothering you again, still the game doesn't install.
My girlfriend's laptop has the same windows as me and worse qualities and I ran the game from her laptop and everything working so after we saw that the game is OK and we understood that the problem is in my computer we decided to copy her files and past it to the folder at my computer but it didn't help as either. Maybe you have some more ideas for me?
Maybe I can download from other site or in the web the installer or something, not from origin?
Thanks for not ignoring my problem, I really appreciate it.
Hello gipergosha,
I think the only option from here is to re-install Windows OS.
If the option is available, install Windows 7 64BIT OS.
Also before installation of the Origin client and BF3 make sure that the re-installed Windows OS has all the updates using Windows Updates.
Note: You will also need to install the required Chipset, Audio, Lan/Ethernet and Graphics drivers after Windows OS re-installation.

Hi,
In the end we installed win 8 64bit and the game was running perfectly.
Thanks for all your help and I hope everything will be OK 🙂
