The aswer tha you gave me didn´t work, But tha´s okay.
I found out tha you can dowload it not using the internet, just the CD.
for those who needs help. Here:
1) Pop the disk in (oh you know you've been waiting for this hot cake of misery )
2) Go to your DVD RV Drive(E🙂 Sims3
3) Click Autorun.exe
4) Course Origin will ask for you to install ( but it's just confirming the game)
5) Log into Origin ( make a account if needed)
6) Once you log in you must be online to download but dont worry it begins to download from your disk ( you hear the disk scrolling and all that jazz)
7) Sit back and see how much faster it downloads.It should open up to Install Sheild Wizard.
P.S: I took it from yahoo.
I tried this but every time I try downloading it says;
"YOUR DOWNLOAD HAS BEEN PAUSED
Origin needs to install files and is waiting for permission. Please choose 'yes' when windows prompts you for permission"
@SapphireFlamez01 try running Origin as admin. To do that, right click on the Origin shortcut on your desktop and select Run As Administrator.

Hi Sapphire,
I had the same problem with Crysis3. Experienced exactly the same issues you did. I tried countless times, same result.
However, after some thought, I disabled both my onboard Ethernet and Wireless adapters, and unistalled Origin.
I then re-installed my game from the 1st disc. It installed Origin and presented me with the install button. Clicked the button
and I was presented with the login screen. Without being able to connect to the internet Origin was not able to verify the account and therefore
wouldn't go any further. So I re-enabled my Ethernet adapter (as i'm hard wired to my router - call me old fashioned - its faster than wifi) and logged in.
To my surprise it began installing from disk immediately. it did not download from the Web.
give it a try ... Good Luck!
