I have bought The Sims 2 Double deluxe cd but have no cd drive

[sarahlc01]

HI,

I recently bought the Sims 2 Double Deluxe cd.

I have had a new laptop with no cd drive so can't install the game...

Is there a way i can download it online without having to pay again? I do have the cd case still with the serial number on.

Thank you

You can always redeem your Sims 2 games in Origin and then download and install them from there.
