{Solved} Sims 2 Ultimate Collection!

Hey y'all, I was able to finally download the  Sims 2 Ultimate Collection, Butttt Now I can't load a single one of my Old Hoods, Peeps - nothinggggg from my previous Sims 2 Games.         This is just nooooooottttt gggggooooooddd!     Before I even downloaded the Sims2 again, I asked if I would be able to play my old hoods and peeps, was told I could, but make a backup - which I always do.  I have Backups on top of Backups, so don't know why I can't load any of them.

I did notice the new Sims2 file is in another area.  It's not where my regular file was loacted.  Am I doing something wrong?  Does anyone know why I can't play my old hoods and peeps?    

Something's telling me I should've just left things as it was.  Is there a way go get my old game back?  All of my lots, houses, peeps -- everything will be lostttt for the 100th time....

Oh, I forgot to respond that I got my Sims 2 working.  I'm not using the Ultimate, I'm able to get in with the Regular Digital version. I no longer need to flop in my disc either. I have all of my Hoods and CC's working too!   Well, let me say, they were working the last time I played it.  Thanks Cinda for all of your help and support!
