    Hi @bertilsson88,

    You are trying to install the game using a disk, right? In that case, I would recommend getting in contact with one of our advisers so they can turn your physical copy of the game into a digital copy in Origin.

    That should help with the installation in newer computers 🙂

    You can contact one of our advisers through EA Help, they will be able to check what's wrong, and help you with this issue.

    You will find a detailed explanation on how to contact them if you need it here.

    Cheers,

    -Mai
