Supernatural will not install!

I just bought a new computer after my old one broke and started to re-download sims 3 and its expansions via origin. For some reason all expansions downloaded and installed without problem except supernatural. It downloaded fine but everytime it starts to install it does:

An error (-5009 : 0x80040702) has occurred while running the setup

I've tried restarting my computer and uninstalling and reinstalling origin but it still refuses to install. I bought the game and I expect to be able to play it! Help!

Details: My computer is running windows 8

               Even expansions I downloaded after supernatural installed

    Did you try to turn off Anti Virus and Firewall for the duration of the installation ?

    Other than that I don't have more ideas. I'll see that any of the other helpers has one.

  • Nvermind, I found out what was bugging the installation. Thanks for your help anyway.
