Why does the Sims 2 keep freezing when I try to install it after disk 3?

I tried waiting 30 seconds before putting disk 3 in, but it just completely stops installing. I waited an hour and it still won install. What should I do now?

    I've had this problem a lot- what I did was just cleaned each disk VERY THOROUGHLY (might sound crazy, but rubbing toothpaste on it then washing it off and letting it dry has worked wonders for me for years). Either way, the outcome always results in the game installing :)

    Give it a try. It's worth it.

It probably has to lots information to load.
