install issue: Need for Speed Rivals

Install gets to 20%, then I get a popup that says "DirectX Setup Error: An Internal error occured"

    i fixed it by doing this that i found on a forum else where.

    First go to Computer > C > Program Files (x86) > Origin Games

    Once you are in the Origin folder go into your Need for Speed (TM) Rivals > _Installer > DirectX > redist

    Once you are in this folder you will notice a bunch of .rar's. Delete ALL of the .rar files OUT of the redist folder. DO NOT DELETE: DSETUP.dll, dsetup32.dll, or DXSETUP.exe

    Once the redist folder only has those 3 files that you DIDN'T delete are left, log back into Origin and hit the "Ready to Install" button again and it should be all set..
