I have managed to get SIMS 2 on Origin to work.

Literally I followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BRX0JlN8lM

only difference is that you don't move over dxgi.dll.

at first the game wouldn't even launch but after i restarted my computer It then worked fine, remember to backup your files first though Just in case, hope this helped lol as I posted the original problem almost 2 years ago XD
