Okay, I downloaded the digital version using the Origin app and I still get the message that "No game disc is found! Please insert The Sims3 Generations game disc before proceeding."  Why am I now getting this message?  I thought downloading it in this manner would make it work.  Is there some other instructions that I missed or am I sorry out of luck as far as ever playing the sims again?

        Step 7 in the instructions. And yes, in my signature.
