Another reason to NOT get BV
Sam the T-man:
I've had that a few times too, so no. Deleting the groups.cache and accessory.cache always fixes it for me though :)
Astral Faery:
OMG - it worked!!! Sadie, you're a lifesaver! I mean really! You have no idea how panic stricken and severly depressed I was when I couldn't crank up my game to take some story shots and play. You've saved my addiction - hooray! Thank you thank you thank you!

I have had BV since christmas andit plays up every now and then like telling me to not use Disk 2 and just minimizing whenever it feels like. Really ANNOYING!!! I don't think it's that great (the expansion) even!

I finally broke down and bought the download version from EA and haven't had a problem #1. I don't know what's different about it from the DVD. But, I bought it when it first came out and no matter what I did including putting CC back one at a time helped in the long run. It took me days to get it to even work for hair, make-up and clothing. Everything else worked fine. Finally got it to work. A couple weeks later it was all gone again, so I removed BV. Wanted it back but had put it on my grandson's PC alone with just the Sims, and registered it to him. So I went to the EA link and bought it. It installed fine, no problems and everything showed up. I put all my CC back in and still worked. I've been playing it for awhile now everyday and haven't had any problems at all. Even went and bought teen stuff from the link and installed it. Preordered Sims Castaway because I love it for PS3. CC showed up right away, hasn't pinged anything...like the DVD did over and over, blue screen of death, etc...I didn't even delete my cache files or thumbnails this time like I do for a fresh start with each new EP and Stuff pack. I have since, and let them regenerate, but still haven't had any problems. Very weird. But knocking on wood just in case. lol

LOL @Astral - you're welcome ;) Dunno what's up with that though, it does get annoying :-\
Never had a problem with the DVD version, although that might be 'cause I read up on this secuROM crap going on, so grabbed a no CD crack to use instead. Tried using the DVD after patching it properly, damn thing got installed through the disc. Promptly went back to the crack, uninstalled the "rootkit" courtesy of this nifty program I found (this is after I patched it), been running with no problems since. There are one or two anomalies with the UI though (the dialogues, anyway) - don't know if that's 'cause of the crack, but they're not game-threatening so I just live with it. Rather that than risk my DVD R/W and my burning programs :P
