    Yeah. The only way I could get it to work was to install like 3 copies of origin all over the place. I was having the same error, and this was the only thing that allowed mine to run. My desktop looks like an abomination, but the game finally works. Uh... success, I guess.

    Confirmed this fixed it. To be safe I reinstalled Origins on the same hardrive as windows and the game on my storage drive.
