Computor crashes

(1/3) > >>

Anita du Preez:
Hi, hope this is the right place.
Have only a few mods, but all of a sudden the computor goes out of the game...sometimes flashing a blue screen and restoring itself after a minute or so, or sometimes completely crashes, that I have to reboot to be able to do anything. I do not know if this can be due to a file download or any of the mods. How do I find out what causes this?

BeosBoxBoy:
Anita - there is a chance you have downloaded something (a bed or sofa for instance) that requires Pets (Mascotas) if you do not have that installed, the game will crash.

There is also a chance you have downloaded a mod or hack that does this.

You will need to run Sims2Pack Clean Installer to check for hacks and mods to see if you can find something. ( http://sims2pack.modthesims2.com/ )

If this does not help.  Try Paladin's Sims 2 Hack Conflict Detection Untility ( http://www.simwardrobe.com/ )

If this does not help, you will have to do things the more difficult way.  Move the downloads to a safe place and add a few (5-10) at a time to see if you can narrow down the search.

I had a similar problem right after I got a new computer.  I was using the built in  graphics card, but once I pulled the ATI card from the old computer and installed it, that problem went away.  If you haven't changed any of the hardware recently though, it's probably as Yakov says.

Anita du Preez:
I removedmy hacks to see ifthat wouldcure the problem... it didn't. I have removedall my recently installed files... problem still there. Seems I will have to spend the night removing and adding... the more labourous way. Still hoping to find the guilty file soon... Thanx for your help sofar...:rabbit:

Good luck! Do you get the hourglass spinning when the screen goes blue? I was having that problem on my old computer unless I shut down all my background tasks before playing.
