CRC error: The file C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Late Night\Caches\Bridgeport.objectCache doesn't match the file in the setup's .cab file. The medium from which you are running the setup may be corrupted; contact your software vendor.
Someone please help me install the Sims 3 Night Life successfully. I have re-installed the entire series in order from which they debuted, so this error is a bit shocking to me.
Help me please!

First, ensure that the game disc is not damaged or dirty. Cleaning the disc and the DVD drive internals using a cleaning kit may help. Scan and defrag the hard drive if necessary. For your specific issue please refer to the following thread:

For those using a digital download version of the game, the CRC issue can also be caused by a bad installer setup that was corrupted somehow during the remote file transfer. You will need to clear the EADM cache and download the game again without interruption, in that case.
If none of the above works, the following may also be of help to you:
1.) Open Windows Start menu
2.) Select Run
3.) Type msconfig
4.) In the Services tab disable all items
5.) In the Startup tab uncheck all items
6.) Restart computer in Safe Mode (press F8 during bootup)
7.) While in Safe Mode insert The Sims 3 Late Night DVD disc
8.) Use Windows Explorer to locate SETUP.EXE on the disc
9.) Right-click SETUP.EXE and select the option to run it as an Administrator
10.) Installation should now proceed without any CRC errors
11.) Reboot the computer normally
If the issue is not resolved, you can give this a try next:
If your issue is still not resolved, verify that the software drivers for the DVD drive are in fact functioning properly and that the DVD drive controller is set to DMA Mode. You can also replace the DVD drive unit with another model either purchased or borrowed. The Sims 3 disc (and its subsequent expansions) apparently has issues with certain optical drives due to the way it was stamped at manufacturing.
