Re: install issue: Need for Speed Rivals

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..

    I assume you have tried the steps in the above post that is marked as a solution?

    Can you right click on that DXSETUP file and then 'Run as Administrator' please?

    Let us know if this helps you get past that error, thanks.
