I have a 13year old computer (WinXP) & sucky WiFi internet. I can’t doing anything about that.

I re-downloaded **The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection** (nearly 11GB file), which took several days. So of course I fucked up the game. I need to repair the game, but the download keeps failing and I also need to d/l a update for the game.

My questions: Is there anyway to downloaded **TS2 UC** file and the update on a different computer, copy to a thumb drive, then install on my computer? Without installing Origin on the other computer?

Thank You

If I get the chance to, I’m going to kill a lot of Sims, just for stress relief. I will name the neighborhood “The Pit” & Miller will be the mayor.
