"There was an error during startup. Please see the log for more details"

bubsquik · ‎2013-04-24

A friend advised me that Origin was good if you didn't want to use the disc but still wanted to play. I downloaded origin and then began by downloading Sims 3 Late Night. Origin told me I must uninstall my current version on the computer. Having done that and succesfully downloaded it, I clicked 'Play' but found this error message come up!

I thought it was because the base game was not installed on origin, but having downloaded that as well the error message still came up! I uninstalled everything and deleted the DCcach folder but time and time again it has come up. Before I downloaded origin my game worked perfectly.

Please help!!
