Dead Space DirectX Setup Error: An internal error occurred

Try running the DirectX installer from the following location, if available: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Deadspace\__Installer\DISK1\DirectX\DXSETUP.exe

If you continue to have a problem, run the DirectX Web Installer from here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/download/details.aspx?id=35

hi i just did try this but its doesnt work its still same fout i still get mirror from intalling .... is there diffrent sluitions?

Hey buddy, I had the same problem. It happens with a couple of EA games. Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Dead Space\__Installer\directx\redist and erase every other file EXCEPT for:

1. DXSETUP.exe

2. DSETUP.dll

3. dsetup32.dll

Then run the installer once again. Good Luck.

Thanks Manuel012387,

In my case the location of those .cab files is this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Deadspace\__Installer\DISK1\DirectX

I however, did not get the game from the On The House offer so your location may be the correct one. Either way, the idea here is to delete potentially corrupt DirectX .cab files and have the installer replace them.

Cheers Bro, Your spot on😕mileyvery-happy:

Manuel, thank you. That did the trick.

i dont understand im using vista but there isnt any of those things in my direcx folder of X84 and X64 things

Hey, what do you see in the paths that I and Manuel012387 have posted.

Hey guys, im having the same issue however im not sure that the same thing is helping my situation. Is there a different way to make it work? Thanks 🙂

it's funny how I never got this error when using Windows Vista, and now that I upgraded to Windows 7, I get this error. and supposedly win vista is the glitched one XD
