How to Transfer a Sims Game to Another Computer
1. Open your desktop and click on the 'Start' menu. Click on your desktop folder to open the area where your pictures, videos, documents and other files are stored. Click the 'Documents' folder, and then select the 'EA Games' folder. Depending on the Sims game you have, the 'EA Games' folder may instead be a 'Maxis' or 'Entertainment Arts' folder.
2. Click the folder provided. If you have multiple Sims games, all of them may be listed. Click on the desired game. A series of folders will appear, including those listed for 'Neighborhoods,' 'Music' and 'Lots.' Highlight the 'Neighborhoods' folder. Plug in your flash drive or SD card and open it. Copy the 'Neighborhoods' folder into your flash drive or SD card folder.
3. Remove the SD card or flash drive and go to another computer. Plug your flash drive or SD card in. If the new computer does not have the same 'Sims' game downloaded, download it by placing the game disc into the disc drive. Follow the pop-up dialog directions to successfully download the game. Repeat the previous steps to open the 'EA Games' folder.
4. Select the 'Neighborhoods' folder under the 'EA Games' folder and delete it. Copy the 'Neighborhoods' folder from your SD card or flash drive folder and paste it to replace the previous 'Neighborhoods' folder. Your neighborhoods, Sims and homes from your previous game will now appear in your new 'Sims' game.
