The Sims 3 installation issues

★★★ Newbie

I bought The Sims 3 plus island paradise expansion pack for PC, whenever I try installing it installshield keeps freezing and origin keeps showing up instead of installshield, and I have slow internet connection so The idea of waiting 20 hours to get The game is a terrible idea so is there any other possible way I can install The game without getting origin stuff showing up and all this 20 hour download and stuff? Thanks in advance.

sims 3 downloads via origins. I dont think theres any way around that.

Try this method: http://answers.ea.com/t5/Mass-Effect-3/How-do-I-install-from-disc-without-download/m-p/1384#M22

Should be the same for Sims 3. Just do the same for Sims 3 instead of Mass Effect 3.

Let me know if it works.

 

You will need to install Origin though. There's no way around that but you can install the game form disc.

Good Luck
