I will try all of it.
I'll post my results later
What do you mean with
Before you do this, try to disable UAC?

NICE TRY, NOTHING HELPED
Can you try it again with this installer?: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8109. Before you do this, try to disable UAC.
I'm now also seeing that the link to the DirectX SDK links to an older version. Here you can download the newest one when the installer above fails: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=6812. You could also try to update your .NET framework to version 4.5: http://www.microsoft.com/nl-nl/download/details.aspx?id=30653. Run all the setups as an administrator.
DONE AND RESULT IS STILL THE SAME.
Installation of SDX stops with error message and Dxlog shows this message:
-------------------- [12/28/12 22:22:29] module: DXSetup(Jun 2 2010), file: dxsetup.cpp, line: 934, function: FindDXSetupWindow
Failed API: GetWindowText() Error: (183) - Eine Datei kann nicht erstellt werden, wenn sie bereits vorhanden ist.
Means a files can't be installed if it already exists
And when that does not work then do the following:
I would suggest you to update video card driver for hardware and check if the issue still persists
DRIVER IS UPDATED SINCE YESTERDAY
- Type devmgmt.msc in start search box and hit Enter. - In device manager, expand video card driver. - Right click on it, click on update. - Reboot the computer.
You could also search for the latest drivers on the website of manufacture of your video card (like intel, AMD, ATI, Nvida etc.)
When this all not work try to enter the command sfc/scannow at cmd.exe. This will search for damaged files af your computer and it will replace them.
DONE, 100% WITHOUT ERRORS
I THINK IT'S SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO DOWNGRADE DIRECTX 11. I HAVE REALLY NO IDEA HOW IT WORKS ON OTHER WIN / 32BIT MACHINES.
DIRECTX 11 ELIMINATES EVERY ACTION FROM ORIGIN OR CAUSED BY OLDER DIRECTX VERSIONS.

Delete the downloaded files (game cache, I think at %appdata%) and download the files again.

Maybe you can post you're problem here again: http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/forums/show/3918.page. There are the supporters of Origin and there you can submit this bug.
