Sims 1/2 and Stories series are the most requested games here to get a serious digital re-release. Plus it's easier to re-enable copy protection support (though my wild guess is that you are on Windows 10)

If you are still on Windows 7 - 8.1, you can still install that from discs, provided that you find another copy (Amazon still has some, but they are usually expensive). The disc installation is fragged due to the copy protection and the fact that Microsoft decided that the old copy protections are a security risk and removed the drivers and proactively prevent them from installing (we are talking Windows 10 here). For now, our prayers are still unanswered, but we still hope that someday EA will re-release Sadly.no. Like i said: not for the faint of heart or a casual/normal user. This link from the MS user support official forums (that means that the solutions are found by users and are not endorsed by MS, despite the fact that they usually work), describes the whole process. So, if you don't know exactly what to do, you might end up reinstalling the operating system.

I am saying this because a lot of the things you will have to do to re-enable the driver for the old copy protection are done in PowerShell. Operating System Requirements, Mac OS X 10.3.9 System Requirements, CPU Processor: PowerPC G3 CPU Speed: 500MHz. It takes someone with a pretty decent knowledge of how an operating system works. VIDEO CARD: 2MB PCI or AGP DirectX 7 compatible video card. The method to bypass all that marvelous blocking is kind of convoluted and way too complicated for a casual or even a normal user. Here are the The Sims System Requirements (Minimum) CPU: Pentium MMX or equivalent.
If you are on Windows 10, if my memory serves me well, disc 1 was the one that would install the copy protection.
