Just Cause 2: Crash, Freeze & Install Issues fix

Just Cause 2 is a sandbox-style action video game. It was released in North America on March 23, 2010, by Swedish developer Avalanche Studios and Eidos Interactive, and was published by Square Enix. It is the sequel to the 2006 video game Just Cause.
                                    Just Cause 2 employs the Avalanche Engine 2.0; an updated version of the engine used in Just Cause.The game is set on the other side of the world from the original Just Cause, on the fictional tropical island of Panau in Southeast Asia. Rico Rodriguez returns as the protagonist, aiming to overthrow the evil dictator Pandak "Baby" Panay and confront his former boss, Tom Sheldon.The player is free to roam the game's open world at will, not having to focus on the game's storyline.
                                    Several new additions and improvements to the game have been highlighted by lead designer, Peter Johansson. The AI has been rewritten to use a planning system which enables enemies to perform varying actions. Enemies can use the environment to their advantage, taking cover behind objects and adapting to the objects around them. Additional elements include vertical gameplay and a manual aiming system.
There are several new weapons in Just Cause 2. There are several new vehicles, including a Boeing 737, with a greater variance in the handling of different vehicles. There is also a real-time deformation system and individual components that can come loose from vehicles.

Problem#1 XINPUT1_3.dll  Error:
Solution: Kindly install or update your directx version.This happens due to missing dlls.Reinstalling will fix the issue.
Problem#2 Installer issues, crashes, freezes or hang at launch:
Solution:
1)The installation might be corrupt
2)Reinstall as system administrator.In Windows Vista and Windows 7, when a non-admin privileged user tries to install something into Program Files, sometimes the OS directs the install location to the user’s VirtualHost folder. This is a safety feature but might cause issues with games such as Just Cause 2. Reinstalling and running the setup as administrator should fix this problem.
Problem #3:Disappearing civilians and vehicles:
Solution: You just need to start the race and this problem will be fixed.This has been accepted as a bug at the customer support and they have recommended this as a workaround fix.
Problem#4:Game crashing erratically on mission completion when the news would report on your latest destruction:
Solution: Disable the steam overlay and hopefully it will fix this issue
