Flashing...

Joefish:
Ok so I wasn't sure which forum to post this in and i will explain why. I have a Mac book and recently purchased VMware Fusion so i could run windows on my mac. I did this because I have mostly all of the Sims games on a PC platform and i don't feel like spending my money on all the ones for mac. I went into windows XP on my mac and was able to download The Sims, university, nightlife, and open for business with no problems. But then i tried installing family fun stuff, Pets, Seasons, Bon Voyage, and Freetime and they all had the same effect. They all caused the neighborhood to flash purple and they caused the walls in the actual houses to flash red. I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling each game individually, but nothing worked. I even tried downloading the patches, but that didn't work either. I don't understand the problem because when I ran the copy of seasons that i have for my mac it worked just fine. If any one could help me it would be much appreciated. Also if any more details are needed to understand my problem I'll be sure to give them. Thanks :)

that is a graphic problem. it's got something to do with your graphics card needing an update.

Joefish:
but then why was i able to run Family fun stuff, Pets, and Seasons perfectly fine on the mac operating system?

RBWpg:
Sounds like your overloading the memory trying to run both at the same time. You mentioned it ran fine for the first few expansions. but the memory needed for each plus the memory needed to run the virtual pc is probably to much for the system. If you can increase the ram memory this might solve the problem. I used to be able to access it on my old I MAC but I now have a new one and still getting my bearing's. Hope this helps.

Buy new RAM, flip out the battery, take out the ram and replace it. Search youtube for videos.

Changing RAM is easy peasy.
