Is it possible that downloadig to much will damage my game?
sarah.fortson:
Recently i have been downloading new meshes, objects, sims, clothes and houses for The Sims 2 and i was wondering if downloading to much will damage or crash my sim game. When i try to play in residences and community lots my game never stops loading (the screen remains loading and won't start), I tried to play in one of my lots and i waited about 40 minutes for my game to start. I restarted my computer twice and deleted some downloads i really don't need and the problem won't stop. The window opens/starts to create-a-sim mode so i think the problem isn't that bad i hope. I even created a family and everything , also i tried to build a house on a lot but i only waited 15 minutes for it to load because i wanted to try a new method to figure out how to fix my game or find the problem.~IF ANYONE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND KNOWS HOW TO FIX IT PLEASE HELP ME ~

When you have a huge amount of stuff in your game, the game will take forever to load, but it will load. It may seem like the splash screen has frozen or something. That's not the case. Look at the HD light on your tower. Is it flashing? If yes, then good. That means that your hard drive is working hard to load all your stuff into the game. My advice to you is to make sure that there's nothing running in the background (except the required processes). You should even disable your internet connection. Then, start the game. Let it load!!! It will take a while before you see any loading on the splash screen. As long as your HD light is lit/blinking, then your computer is fine. If the game truly freezes up, the HD light will be off and more than likely your mouse will freeze up as well.

if you clean up your downloads from time to time it should never be a real problem, unless you downloaded something seriously corrupted

this happened to me. i had to move my downloads to the desktop and put in custom content section by section, untill i found the corupted file. but first i would try taking out only the downloads that u recently put in your game (list by date) that made your game get stuck on the loading screen. if that doesnt work you gotta do it the other way. its somewhat a pain in the butt but it works everytime.
