I purchased The Sims 3 but had to contact EA assistance today to make it go from a 32 to 64bit. The change was made successfully and the game was downloaded on my Origin account, along with 1 extension pack and 1 additional disk. However, the game won't launch. An error message always shows up saying the additional disk isn't compatible with the game and I should updated my game. I updated it twice on the Origin app but it still doesn't work. EA assistance wasn't able to help me and I can't even remove the additional disks without removing the whole game. Has anyone else encountered this problem ?
