12 years agoDirectx error
The game i am trying to get to play is "Need for Speed: The Run". it completes the installation of the game, and then does the directx error:-
"Directx Setup Error: The cabinet (.cab) file is not signed".
I am running windows 7 ultimate 64bit with a nvidia geforce gt 240 1 gb, have 4gig ram and running a dual core 2.93, I am running directx 11
I can play black ops online with no problems, i have not had a problem until now with the directx.

There are some solutions that fixed the issue in other games titles, but the error message is exactely the same.
Okay i know what to do now. You have to go to where your orgin games are. Default: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games Then you have to delete the Dead Space folder. Then relog origin or log in. Redownload dead space 3 and install. That's how i got my dead space 3 working.
Go to http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=8109 [microsoft.com] and download.
When it asks you where to put the files put the files in "C:\Program Files\Origin Games\game_title\__Installer\directx\redist".
After that, retry to further install the game. If this doesn't work go to C:\Program Files\Origin Games\Game_Title\__Installer\directx\redist and delete every .cab file. Don't delete the .dll's and .exe.
