EA StaffThere should be no need to reinstall Windows. The error message as shown above in your screenshot usually pops up if the installer wasn't able to create or update all necessary files. Please make sure that you always run Origin or the installer with admin priviledges, to do so right-click the setup file and select Run as administrator.
Please uninstall Origin completely and clean up the installation folder afterwards so that no files are left. Then go to http://www.origin.com/download and download the latest version. Install Origin and try again.
Edit: I just realized that this was already mentioned by carbonic above. Are you using any kind of security software with very strict rules that might impact the installation process? Please do a Cleanboot or safe mode with network access and try the installation again.
