    I keep on getting this error when I try to install The Sims 3 after I had downloaded from Origin. I have a Windows 7 computer btw.

      hi simswithcheese

      have you uninstalled the game before? if so you need to remove leftover files before reinstalling it

      first pull to the desktop sims 3 doc folder

      path my documents/ electronic arts/sim3

      then remove leftover files; use a ccleaner to help
      how to uninstall plus more info on ccleaner see
      http://simswiki.info/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:TS3_Uninstall

      then reboot system and try again, and then use the manual super patch to update the game.

      good luck

      Do you have .net framework enabled in system features?
      I do not work for EA nor do I have any association with EA. I am a gamer helping other gamers.
