Did you ever considering... buying the games? *gasp of shock here*

Why on earth would anyone ever do that?

Dunno tbh, just a totally crazy idea.

Ok.  I still have no idea what caused everything to uninstall, but it wasn't in the registry either. 

I have since re-installed the base game only along with the accompanying crack and replaced the desktop shortcut to bypass the launcher.  The game worked fine.  I then installed patch 1.24.3 followed by the framework, awesomemod and then awesomemod updater.  Now when I try to start the game, I am being asked for my registration code.  I was under the impression that awesomemod prevented the diskcheck and prevented the game from phoning home.  Am I missing something?  Maybe I'm a tard. I have searched and searched for an answer.  If sympathy counts for anything, I badly burned myself today by spilling boiling water on my giant pregnant stomach.  I was hoping to play tonight whilst my other two spawn are sleeping to help take my mind off of the pain.  I beg for your merciful help.

I am going to try to say this as clearly as possible this time, STOP USING CRACKS FOR THE SIMS! Now that that's out of the way, no disc check is not default, you have to use the config file and activate it. I personally use nraas since it never needs to be updated, meaning when a new patch comes along and AM is out of commision for a few days you can still play. Your crack, dirty lil thing that it is, was for the sims3.exe, right? The patch made it to where the game now runs from a different file, sims3W I think. I'm assuming you removed the crack inorder to update, did you remember to put it back in? Not that you should cause IT'S EVIL.

bugga:
I installed the crack merely to make sure that my install had, in fact, worked before taking the time to install the framework and awesomemod.  Yes, the little bastard was removed after updating.
