Title: sims 3 full build1.package doesn't match and others to follow Post by: dorkapalooza on June 07, 2009, 06:12:47 am I have run "can you run it" and appear to be in good shape. The install gets about 75% done and alerts me that there is a problem with my cab files and to contact software co. Of course there isn't anything on the SIMS3 site to help... Any help would be great. I wasn't really expecting to be up until 4 am... oh well.
sims 3 full build1.package doesn't match I will post the rest later... they all relate to the files not matching? Title: Re: sims 3 full build1.package doesn't match and others to follow Post by: Razamataz on June 07, 2009, 06:48:30 am Simple take the disk back to where you got it, And get an exchange. Cab files are a form of compression and the disk is ether dirty ot has a bad sector on that cab..

Sounds like a bad CD/DVD. Take it back to exchange for a new one. Keep in mind to bring the receipt with you. Title: Re: sims 3 full build1.package doesn't match/Loading and crashing Post by: dorkapalooza on June 07, 2009, 06:55:16 pm Okay, we exchanged it... Loading new disc... fingers crossed.
Thanks guys... *Moderation Note: Double post merged. Please remember to use the Modify option at the upper right of your post if you have to add on to what you've said previously. Thanks.* Okay, update... new disc, same error ( i could hit, ignore, abort, or retry) I hit ignore. It let me load the game and then after the intro and loading begain it crashed. What now? I rechecked my specs, I am in good shape, could use the faster processor, but it exceeded minimum requirements, sames for graphics card? I have now defragged, cleaned, turned off all unecessary programs. I have only seen one posting on the internet that responds to this issue. I purchased my copy at Target, exchanged there without any hassle. thanks again in advance for any help Help<squeak> Title: Re: sims 3 full build1.package doesn't match and others to follow Post by: Razamataz on June 08, 2009, 06:40:57 pm Do you have any disk Emulators running during install. if so turn them off.
Title: Re: sims 3 full build1.package doesn't match and others to follow Post by: dorkapalooza on June 10, 2009, 03:54:06 pm I don't know what disc emulaters are? sorry. I swear it took many hours to clean end every extra process, etc... But it finally works. it is so damed slow though. I am wondering if I have to have the dwm. process running to play.. it's taking a lot of Whatever its called lol. I think I am in the clear but apparently need a newer computer! Argh. this one is only two... =(
Title: Re: sims 3 full build1.package doesn't match and others to follow Post by: Razamataz on June 11, 2009, 04:46:25 am are you using a tobisha computer? they have a DVD player that been giving people problems installing. if so go to The sims 3 page Hit the Help button at tope right of screen when it comes up Select (What steps can I take to attempt to correct a 'Disc Authorization Error'? ) This has steps to try.
Other then that I can think of only 2 other things to try. they are try installing in safe and or administrator mode. |
