Oh Dear I so know how you feel! But let me just tell you this! When we all started on the Sim2... it was NUTZ! SOOO Crazy! everything was wonky! nothing worked right sims were going mad and eating their Young!... ok not really... but it was a mess! If it is that frustrating then put it on an back burner, play sims2 have FUN! and wait.... Just breath and wait! We will get it all fixed and working right! Then try again.... Have faith!
