    DLL missing error while starting Mass Effect 3 demo

    Last night I downloaded this game and when I tried to start it then I was getting error message saying that - xinput1_3.dll missing. To solve this issue I have tried to download the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable and installed it but still the problem didnt get resolved. I have tried to reinstall the game but to no avail. Can anyone suggest me how to solve this dll error? Thanks

    The xinput1_3.dll error message you are getting might be due to the video card driver. I think there is something wrong with your video card driver, so I would like to suggest you to first uninstall all video card driver and then install the latest version of the graphics driver on your system from official website. After that check if reinstalling the driver works for you or not.

    May be you have corrupted DirectX in your computer, therefore you might be getting this issue. So I would like to suggest you to reinstall DirectX on your system with latest one and after that see if it works for you. You can also easily download the latest directx version from the official website of microsoft. Hope this helps you out.

    Re: DLL missing error while starting Mass Effect 3 demo

    To solve this issue I have gone through the below step by step method. Now I am able to play this game without any issue but I have found some bugs:
    • Uninstalling/reinstalling NVidia drivers
    • Uninstalling/reinstalling DirectX
    • Uninstalling/reinstalling Visual Studio Runtime
    • Uninstalling/reinstalling Origin/demo
    • Running with selective startup (i.e. MSCONFIG )
