EA we still need a fix for The Sims Complete Collection!

I have Sims1 Complete Collection & my operating system is MS Windows 10. I contacted MS & they told me to contact you about this issue. The game will not start, at first it was a error message saying I wan't the administrator (but I was). No that is fixed but I just get the pop up box saying do you want to run this as administrator & I click yes, but nothing happens now not even a pop up error message box.
Thought I found a fix that I saw on the MS forms & on the forms here (http://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/859239/windows-10-players-solutions-for-sims-1#latest)
But that doesn't work either. Yes at least the game launches now, but what good is it when we can't play the game!
Problems with the so called no cd mod as follows:
It makes the game extremely glitchy, so bad that my whole town dispersed from every neighborhood! When I was in build mode to look at the other towns! This happens with glitch happens every time.
Go to move the mouse to the side of the screen & it glitches the game so bad it freezes my computer. I have to go to task manager & click on the Sims icon to get back in game.
But the problems don't stop there oh no the moment it is brought back to life the words go all fuzzy in the popup boxes & game small black box behind the message box.....kinda like it does when you have a old computer that can't handle the game.
"Which is far form the case because my computer is a newer computer it has 4GB (3.44GB available) of RAM & 1TB extra memory! So needless to say my computer can more than handle it."

Even if The Sims is hacked to run on Windows 10, the game suffers from glitches that will not happen if you were playing on an older Windows version such as Windows 7.
It could likely be the update that's preventing The Sims from working but you want to check if the computer is running Windows 10. If you aren't running Windows 10 (e.g., Windows 7) but you're still unable to run the game, the update could be installed. A sign that the update is installed is that The Sims' splash screen doesn't appear or you get Access Denied promoting you to play with Administrator privileges. A non-Windows 10 computer without MS15-097/KB3086255 should display the splash screen and launch the game if the CD is in the drive, otherwise it will display an error message to insert the correct CD-ROM.
