    Howdy folks.

    I've been trying to get the BF3 Beta to run all day, but every time I install it, I get this message. I HAVE reinstalled, multiple times. The official forums have no help (but many similar cases!), so I was wondering if anyone else on Giant Bomb had run into this? I really wanted to try out Caspian Border after being severely disappointed with Operation Metro on the PS3.

    Haha. First of all, I'd help if I could, but I really think you're doomed :P Whoever got fucked with by Origin while trying to run this beta, was unable to find any reasonable fixes.  
    Secondly, we won't be playing BC2 anymore ^^ BF3 is here. Oh and, who are you on Steam? o_o

    @AhmadMetallic: I actually fixed it. Turns out, you need to install IE9 in order for it to run. Super bogus.

    Also, do you know anyone else that has a Steam avatar that is a Fortune Cookie?
