the launcher won't luanch

I literally bought the game day before yesterday on origin, had an old one that was installed via disk but have since lost the disk. Origin says its updated to the most current version and I've repaired the game about 4 times nothing. I haven't even been able to play once ;-(

What version does the launcher show in the corner ? 

Did you ever own any expansions ? Did you try to reinstall those too ?

I lost all the old disks I had sadly.

The Launcher doesn't allow me to do anything and the version it has is incorrect i presume.

Right, sorry.

Did you ever try to simply install the super patch to 1.67 ?

I really don't want to make you uninstall the game again and search registry again but I kinda don't see any other solution.

Everything Sims 3 and Sims 3 launcher needs to be gone. 

Did you follow these instructions: http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:TS3_Uninstall#Advanced_-_Edit_Registry_manually ?

Ive done that but I guess ill try again

Also search your registry for launcher.
