if your games are registered to your account download and install Origin then log into the Origin shortcut icon on your desktop with the email and password you use for your account

please take note Origin has changed the layout of the games

If you registered it on Origin or the Sims website just download Origin and it should be in your library. If it was a disc than just put the disc in the optical drive and follow the instructions that pop up.
