Ok, so I put my disc into the disc thingy, and i wait, and wait, and wait, and the window doesn't come up. I bought this game in March, I even returned it once, and STILL the new one doesn't work either. So, I try and try, I have DirectX too, and still NOTHING works Plz help me

what do i put into the blank space? Is there a code or something or is the code regedit or something else from the game's box?
What happens if you go to My Computer & double click on the CD?
it says there isn't a CD in the drive
To play the game if you have downloaded any expansion pack you have to play with the expansion pack its weird i know... did you try that??
Destiny =]
Look at the box- does it say "CD-ROM" or "DVD-ROM" in the black box in the corner? Open "My Computer," then look at your different CD drives. Are they labeled RW? DVD?
If the Sims 2 Double Deluxe disc you're using is a DVD-ROM and you don't have/aren't putting it in the DVD-ROM drive, then your computer won't be able to read it.
It may be something else, but try this. Might be it.
Good luck!
EDIT: Eek! Didn't mean to rate my own answer. Sorry.
Destiny: The Sims 2 Disc and Nightlife are in one disc, so no. Ad Astra: On the box, It says I need a Video Card, I think I have one but I'm not sure. If i click on my computer, It says I have nothing in either the CD/DVD drive
Firstly, check and see if you have a graphics card or an integrated graphics chip. If you put the disc in the drive do you get a message telling you to insert the proper disk? Secondly, if you have a card that meets the standards, this is a job for www.reclaimyourgame.com. Since Spore's release EA has been dogged with problems and lawsuits in relation to SecuRom. The problem you're describing could be SecuRom. Thirdly, I know this has been mentioned above, but you have to make sure you have a CD/DVD Rom, not just a CD Rom. The game won't run on a CD rom, even if it allows you to install it. It may install but won't play unless you have a DVD Rom.
