"Please insert disc 2" For downloading the sims 2 base game.

I am trying to download the sims 2 base game from a second hand shop, but it constantly asks me to insert disc two after it reaches 23%. Was my first mistake getting it second hand? And are there any...

@Tremayne4260 Yes, I just tried that for XP (service packs 2 and 3) as well as windows 7. It still did not work ☹️

    @Tremayne4260 If installing from disks and from copied folders doesn't work, I'm not sure how to get around the error; it's like the installer is not recognizing Disk 2?

    The only other option I can think of is creating ISO disk images, but that will most likely yield the same result.

    @Tremayne4260 Well, installing from disk images worked for me, and it accepted Disk 2/3/4 when prompted. I'm on a fresh Windows 11 installation.

    @Tremayne4260 Yeah, I followed all instructions and copied each disk onto their respective folders
