    What are your system's vital specs and your OS' details (SP upgrade level)? 

  • I recommend to open origin, go to your game library and right click the BF3 icon and select repair, if that doesn't eliminate the error manually install the latest version of direct X.

    Also as my distinguished collegue suggested :-) here are the minimum and recommended specs to run BF3:
