    I know how to fix this 

    First you find any other game you own preferably a steam one

    Then you need to go into the game files and use some common sense to get to the installer

    steam games are in the Programfiles(x86) then steam apps , then common and then find the installer 

    in said installer find the files that are called DXSETUP.exe DSETUP.dll and dsetup32.dll and copy them

    then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4\__Installer\directx\redist

    and paste them in there replace the files already in there but I prefer to put them in another folder
