I'm running on very limited computer space but I wanted to play one of the Sims 2 expansion packs. Is there a way to play it without loading it and having it eating up the space?

No, but one thing you could do is find a cheap or 'give away' hard drive. If you're using a desktop machine, put the jumper for that free drive to slave, and (the jumper to your real working drive to Master, if it already isn't) load all your games onto it. Save your game files from My Documents/ EA Games /The Sims 2 onto a folder in the new drive (so it doesn't get erased). Then delete the game and reinstall it into your new drive (drive D:\ etc) and then after it is all installed, go and put your backup back into the same place it used to be on My Documents / EA Games / The Sims 2
There are lots of people that have upgraded to huge harddrives and may have some spare 20 to 40 gig drives laying around - people are throwing them away because they are useless to be used by themselves on most systems. Someone you know may have a small stack of them they'd be happy to give to you. While you pick it up, ask them to show you where the slave and master jumper is, and they might even be happy to set it up for you. Piece of cake and a free upgrade. :)
