Okay this worked out perfectly! Got everything done and was able to install the game successfully. However, I have one last additional problem. My game installed onto the D drive which is where I keep all my games. D Drive is my preferred location and I've even set it for that because my C drive has no space. My problem is that the Sims 3 is trying to update a 1.6gb patch onto my C drive instead of doing the patch on my D Drive. How do I make it so that the patch is installed onto my D drive instead?

Are you downloading the patch through the launcher ? It should automatically detect where your game is. Doens't matter which drive.
Did you always have the base game on c ? What about your user files ? Are they on d too ?
You can try if the manual patch works out better for you:
