Need help with installation of The Sims. Please help!

I've always wanted to check out this game but could never afford it. Well today I found it at one of those highway salvage places for $10 and bought it. Just brought it home and went ot install it, and when I got to the part where it asked for a serial number, I looked at the back of the jewel case and there's no serial number! The back card is gone, and the serial number is listed nowhere in any of the documentation that came with the game. What can I do? The installation will not go any farther without a serial number. I tried a random series of numbers, but no luck. It keeps telling me it's invalid.

Please help! I'm dying to play this game.

I'll e-mail it to you. I have that game and never install on my computer, so you can have that number.

You are a grade-A jewel McHawkson! Thank you so much!

Problem solved. Mods, you can lock this if you'd like.

Installed and ready to go. I actually haven't delved into the game yet, but I plan to give it a go today. The number went right through, though. Thanks again, brother!
