This is actually *illegal*. So no one will
probably do this here.
Anyone else's number won't work because
they'll be wanting to play their game too.
You could google it.

yeah, thats what im trying to do, cuz i
bought my game like a couple years ago but
i threw out the box and book, and i
uninstalled it off the computer. I dunno
how u could find the serial number for the
one u have. Only reason it is illegal is
that people can make copies of the game,
sucks, i dont want to waste 40 bucks on
something I already own lol.

Did you register your game with EA? Then
they'd have the number and you could get
it from them.
The reason it is illegal is exactly
because of that. They aren't giving away
their work for free.

I dont remember, I had it loaded on here
since 2005. I deleted ita few mths back
when i was cleaning this computer out. I
know when i first loaded the game i had to
put a serial number in, but i highly doubt
i did the online register thing i always
tend to skip over those grrrrr. So i dont
know i guess i am out of luck. Maybe jason
will buy me a new one for valentines but I
dont think they sell the one i have here,
it has like 4 disks with it. Its the sims
complete collection.

why they dont have it at the px here they

Someone was telling me that the wii fries
your tv, i dunno if its just cuz the
germany thing with different voltages or
if it happens in the states as well, i
really wanted a wii but not if it is gonna
fry my tv. I found a place to get the
serial number but my cd's are corrupt, go
figure theyve been floating around for
like 3 yrs lol. Oh well , maybe with taxes
we can get a wii, I cant seem to find one
around here anywhere, they sell wii games
and wii accessories but not the actual
game console.

That's really interesting, I've not heard
of Wii's ruining tv's. Nintendo was SO
good to us when our house burned down. I
called them and sent in my melted Wii,
they sent me a brand new one free of
charge!!! So I <3 them forever ^^

Wii does not fry your tv. Maybe in Germany
with the different voltage... but our Wii
is hooked up to our HDTV and it looks
fabulous. No worries about frying
anything.
