Uploading the game

As you know sims can cause issues with the laptop. I noticed old sims versions won't work because windows isn't the right format. Does anyone know what format sims 3 needs to run with as little problem as possible? Thanks,

Do you mean in terms of Windows XP, Vista, 7? Personally, I can recommend Windows 7 64-bit for the Sims 3 - make sure to have at least 4gb of RAM, though the way games are going, it's worthwhile getting more. 

You should be running the game at the latest version - 1.67: http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-3/FAQ-Current-Patch-1-67-Manual-links-and-more/td-p/67858
