How install my Battlefield 3 Limited Edition game?

During installation of BF3 Limited Edition message states the code has been used before. Well yea, I used to play BF3.

So am I forced to buy BF3 games and dlc and premium all over again?

I thought BF3 was free!   If so where download it?

Thanks in advance.

    Hey, what you need to do is log into Origin using the same account that you used previously. This will detect your ownership and bypass the code request.

    Thanks for responding.

    I don't have that login information. And it is not Premium and has no DLC's.

    So should I just buy the BF3 Premium and start all over again with my newer login info for BF4??

    No, you should recover your Origin\Xbox Live\PSN Account (whicever one you have forgotten the information for) and play on the account that you have.  If you are on PC contact a game advisor and have him merge your BF3 and BF4 Origin accounts into a single origin account.  You can contact a game advisor here:

    1 Click on the following link: https://help.ea.com/contact-us
    2 Make sure you are logged in (top right corner)
    3 Click on the blue button "Contact a Game Advisor"
    4 Enter the name of your game or product (or "Origin" for account-related issues) and click "Find Solutions"
    5 Select the type of issue and the platform you play on, and click on "Find Solutions".
    6 Click on the blue button "I still need help" if the FAQ articles do not apply to your situation.
    7 Select a contact option. Note that you may get different contact options depending on your country.

    I recommend that you use the telephone option and the “call me” option so you don't have to stay on hold for a long time (call back feature available to North America only).
