game keeps crashing at start up

(1/3) > >>

LuckyKitten:
i have uni, nl, ofb, pets, fun stuff, and glam stuff installed.

i downloaded some food and installed it into my downloads folder lastnight.  now when i try to start my game, while the loading screen is up it just closes the app completely out.  just exits the game.  i went into my downloads and removed all the food downloads and its still doing it, but i wasnt doing it before i put the food in.

so what else could be causing this to happen?

at the sim2 site there was something about the nVidia video cards but mine is on the list of ones that are supposed to work, mines a GeForce FX5500.  

i wasnt having any troubles at all untill last night, been working the last 4 hours trying to fix the problem, checking my comp for corupted files and everything to see if that might be causing it.  nothing is popping up.  

downloaded a thingy to check that none of my other mods might be interfering with one another, says all my hacks are fine.  so i dont know what else to do to try to fix this.  im tired and my mind is blank as to what the next step should be.

help anyone, please?  thank you

i have had this problem myself

my problem was a bad download [a dell tv thing from mts2]
i also at first thought i had too many downloads but, yeah that wasnt it

miros1:
Open up My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\ and drag the .package and .cache files to another folder.  For some reason, the game likes to corrupt those files, and that will keep your game from running.

Your game will load horridly slow the next time, but it should load!

It will also do that if you have a download that is for an expansion pack you don't have. If the downloads you got last had one in there for Seasons, it will do that also, I figured out finally...
