Hi,
My computer was disconnected for about 4 months due to a move of house where I couldn't set it up for that length of time. When I managed to find a corner for it I was all excited and installed the latest EPs I got for my birthday: Supernatural and Seasons. It asked me to download origin and I did, and created an account, BUT, when I finished installing the first EP, instead of the autorun, a window opened on the Documents folder. I thought I'd pushed the mouse button by mistake over it, so I closed it without giving it much thought, but after downloading the second EP I found the documents window popped up again and there was no way I could get to play the game. This morning I tried to uninstall everything, but when I got to the actual base game error -5005 : 0x8000ffff came up. I looked online and found a way to solve it, and am now re-installing everything, but everytime the installsheild ends, up pops the documents folder! No EA download manager, no game launcher. Please help me solve it!
I'm playing the Sims 3 on XP SP3. Thank you for your time and patience!
Anita
