What is the size of your 'Downloads' Folder ?

Thank you, theraven! :D How long does it take it to load the neighbourhood screen? I'm curious because since I've got a new pc and my Downloads folder went up to 5.50GB, now it takes a while to load compared to XP (I have Win 7 64-bit). But maybe it's the fact I changed from IDE to AHCI mode.
There is a thread about Sims 2 and Win 7 for anyone who wants to discuss about changes. In your shoes, I'd go for more RAM too.
WIth everything in, it can take 20 min or so until I'm in the neighborhood view. Might seem a lot - but with my laptop I got used to somewhere between 1 and 2 hours, so it's nothing in comparance. With 1-2 GB in (when I'm in test mode and mostly have hacks and defaults in), it takes around 2 min. I've got all EP's and SP's, and load a quite full neighborhood, which probably ups the loading time a bit, too...

TSR never let me download anything anyways. Even with the account it kept saying i don't have EPs

Mine's 416MB but I'm trying to clean it up a bit because after about 6 mins. of gameplay it lags ;)
HappyThoughts:
I currently have 10.5 gigs in my Downloads folder. I know for a fact that 3.5 of it is just hair alone, and thats after only choosing my favorites of the original 7gigs I started with. My collection slowly grows though, I find something I have to have atleast once a week. My start up time is somewhere around 3-5minutes depending if I added a new package file again or not. A big difference considerring my last pc took just as long to load with only 3g's of custom content. If your anything like me, an awesome processor and lots of RAM are a must for this game.
