Please answer my question, as this will help with the fix. What colour is the flashing?
Maybe asking a third time will work??
And while we're at it, what are the rest of the computer specs. We know you are running on a 64 bit, dual-core system with Vista, but can you please tell us how much RAM you have, what graphics you've got and what your processor speed is?

I'm not flashing terrain anymore. I'm not having any problems since I moved all my custom content to a one-folder position in Downloads. I think I ran into trouble because I have so much CC. More than most folks. I mentioned my PC stats because Sims 2 is not suppose to be for duel core so it's amazing it works at all.
Thanks for the help but I got a job irl and I can't hit the forums anymore, work is picking up. I really do appreciate all the input tho.
I'm going to consider this problem resolved. You all have a good day.
:D

Well, I've got quad core, and my game runs... Maybe not without troubles in the start (memory and/or problems with the quad core), but now it runs more or less smoothly, even with 30 GB of custom content. Anyways, multi-core processors can cause troubles, as sims can only run on one CPU unit at a time. But I wouldn't say it's amazing your game runs at all. Besides, I'm pretty sure your problem does not have anything to do with dual core.
It's good you found a solution, but if you do have the required EPs you should be able to have downloads in deeper levels than one folder (as long as the placement is in the default position at C://, anyways).
Expansion packs (EPs) are University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Pets, Seasons, Bon Voyage, FreeTime, Apartment Life and Mansion & Garden Stuff (collection packs could cover some of these)
All others are Stuff Packs (SP) and won't have a significant influence on game functions.
For future reference, in the help topics it is a good idea to state your computer specs and all other things helpers might need to know (which EPs or SPs you have, color of flashing items, whether or not you usually run tons of programmes besides Sims, whether you have CC or not, and roughly how much CC you have, etc.) in the first post, especially if it might be of significance. Saves us from nagging...
