Okay, first all my other games are CD versions. I got an Origin promo code off a rewards site which I used to get Sims 3 Pets expansion pack.
Now the problem is that the game is an Origin downloadable version. I've managed to download the Sims 3 Pets installer on a seperate computer with a 3G connection, but the problem is that my gaming computer with all my other CD versions of the game is on a Firewall protected network, which Origin cannot connect through. Therefore I can't install Origin on this computer. The network administrator (that's me by the way) can't figure out how to allow outbound access on Origin's ports making Origin useless.
I've transferred the game to a DVD, and managed to run the installer, but it's asking me for a CD key. Is it possible to get Origin to show you your CD key which needs to be used to install the game? If so, where do I find the CD key?
Origin is automatically attempting to install the game on the computer I downloaded it on which is a crappy work laptop which is not what I want because it doesn't even have Sims 3 base game on it, which means it's gonna fail anyway.
