How do I minimize it?
Dread:
I have stuff to do. Checking posts on here, or simply browsing the net, I need to be able to minimize it, but it always takes so damn long to minimize it when I press the Windows button, and even longer brining it back up. Is there any other way?

If your computer can handle the additional resource used to run in Windows Mode, you can edit the startup icon by adding a -w after what's already listed for its Properties, Target.
For example rather than: "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Glamour Life Stuff\TSBin\Sims2SP2.exe"
you would modify it to be "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Glamour Life Stuff\TSBin\Sims2SP2.exe" -w
Optionally you can add the resolution with -r 800x600 or whatever resolution you want the game to run in.

I knew the window thing, but THANKS for the resolution one! Do you think if I ran it in... w-what's the smallest res? Anyways, maybe if I ran it in the smallest resolution it would go faster? For all the help you've given me, ancient, thanks alot!

All you can do is try. If your game lags too much because of the Windows Mode, you're options are running full screen or upgrading your computer.

Well, I tried changing the resolution first, but it's still at 800x600. There's a screen resolution area in the options, but it only has 800x600.
