Sims 2 onto Origin
Please help me get Sims 2 on Origin. I have all of my old discs but my current laptop doesn't have a CD ROM drive. If I bought an external one would I be able to get my games onto Origin?

@kimmmmmmzy , as @Cantiras said the CD codes will no longer work to allow you to either register the game or to redeem the game on Origin as Sims 2 is no longer available on Origin. The code giveaway ended October 2018.
The game will run on Windows 10, but you will need an external disk drive to run it. I do not recommend using any hacks (like the No CD hack) as honestly they can interfere with the game itself and quite often are more trouble than they are worth.
To be honest with you, I've never heard of linking any non Origin games to run on Origin and I would not attempt to do that.
I do have instructions on how to create a disk image once you install the game. You can carry that around on a thumb drive or leave it on your computer desktop.
Please let me know if you need further assistance with installing the game.
Thanks for the reply! Never saw this and ended up giving up before. The rough part is my Sims 2 games are all Mac only. My Mac laptop has a CD ROM but I'm not confident in it being able to play the games. I'll go ahead and give it a try and see what happens I guess.
