I ran hackdiff and I have no conflicting hacks in the game.
All that does is tells you if you have hacks that are conflicting with each other. It will not tell you if you have a hack conflicting with the game. Before I uninstalled. I'd remove all CC. Plus delete the cache files(those could be corrupt which will keep the game from loading) plus delete the thumbnails. Then I'd reboot the PC and reload the game/try again. If that works, then I'd use Delphy's download organizer. Not Clean Installer. Clean Insallter only picks up global hacks/mods. Anything in Red I'd move temporarily. Put back in my CC and reboot the game again -the mods/hacks. Test if all goes well, it's a hack or mod not updated. You even have to be careful with non-globals and this EP, anything to do with time/aging/aspirations. The different elixirs. If that quarantines your problem I'd put back in the mods one at a time and test again to see which one it is, even if it takes 30 or 40 reboots. Uninstalling and reinstalling isn't going to solve your problem if you have a corrupt file, mod/hack that hasn't been updated.
PS: You do also realize you can completely delete the Sims 2 folder from my documents and then click on the game it will rebuild all those files on it's own. You have to leave it be, it could take awhile to rebuild them and if you stop it, it will have to start all over. But it will rebuild all those files without having to uninstall/reinstall. You can also move out your lots, and character files. Reset the neighborhoods and then copy those files back over.

i know its a pain but when you install a new ep it always takes longer to load.and you have to wait to enable custom items than go out and back in again.what i do is when its all done go in to the computer and do a disk cleanup and a defrag.yes it takes all day but just think of what fun your going to have the next day.and i usually do cleanup and defrag once a week that keeps the computer running quick.i hope that helps some...

You know I did not think about remove the Sims 2 folder. Thanks for that idea. I will try your suggestions before uninstalling the game.
Thanks for all the suggestion everyone. If all goes well I will up date post.
