Did the uninstall from Origin and the first retail disc install (had both on different hard drives) and am in the process of applying the 1.5 & 1.51 (the retail was 1.4) after re-installing the game from the disc again as per the you tube video. Went to EA forum which is Battle Log now and others having the same issue are still having issues..I don't think having 64 bit is the issue as I ran "Can I Play It" and it was in the green.
Had to do re-reply because I didn't see the 'email me when someone replies' button.
What I did was finally get an EA tech/rep on the phone and after several tries and about four different phone calls (went through all sorts of tweaks that didn't work) it boiled down to linking the thing to Pogo and Origin together. Once that was done it auto-updated to 1.51 from the 1.4 retail disc and now is listed in Origin games but when loggin in ya gotta go through the Pogo user name and password. Why they don't auto connect these any way is beyond me but it is a hoop you have to jump through being an older game. The best way is to let them (EA) call you (from their site) then just say let's link the game to Pogo from Origin it'll save a lot of time. Spent hrs doing all sorts of things like ending processes and what not and don't let 'em say take command and create an Admin account because then you open yourself to hackers if you get hacked all that was needed was to link the accounts. Sorry for all the repeated info but it cost me 200 minutes on my cell phone that I have limited time on...grrrr.
