Thanks Trippy!
I looked on the dvd like you said and found the support folder. I wasn't able to find the redist file, but I instead reinstalled all the files there individually.
The game is now loading! Problem #1 ::check::
Problem #2:
The cut scenes/movies play perfectly, but when the actual game runs the sounds/voices are extremely glitchy as well as the the movement/actions.
I just want to say that I can play Starcraft 2 and Masseffect 2 at full with no such problems so I don't believe it's the inability of my computer to run the graphics/game.
