Missing dxgi.dll fix, had enough of this crap

★★★★ Novice

Really EA? So after a long time, I decide to buy a game. pay 60 bucks for bf4, and when I go to launch it, and error code that says missing dxgi.dl pops up. Had this game for more than two weeks now, and havent been able to play at all. I even contacted customer support many times, but they can help me either. What I have done: 

Upgraded directx 

reinstalled the game 

reinstalled orgin 

Tried a new antivirus (Custommer support guys advice) 

 

 

I found the dxgi.dll file in system 32, so it is not missing.  here are my computors specs i found recently

Hi,

 

have you tried reinstalling Visual C++?

 

* Open your BF4 folder (normally C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4)
* In the BF4 folder navigate into _Installer\VC\vc2012Update3\redist

Run vcredist_x86.exe and vcredist_x64.exe

Hi,

try this from this thread http://answers.ea.com/t5/Battlefield-4/Invalid-license-Reason-code-Missing-DLL-dxgi-dll-Function/td-...

This is from eabarry

Run the DirectX Web Installer from here and then reboot and retry: http://www.microsoft.com/en-ie/download/details.aspx?id=35

What's it say when you run DXDiag.exe? Just to make sure you're all up to date.

 

 

How about running game as Admin? Sorry, i bet you have, it's like scraping the bottom of the barrel.
