I keep loosing my original swing set and other original Sims 2 items in the inventory.  They seem to be hidden in the inventory.  They show up on lots but I can't find them to choose them.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled a few times.  The files are there until I enable my downloaded items into my inventory, then they are hidden.  Any suggestions?

My friend purchased a computer with Windows Vista (I have it but afraid to install for fear of losing InSIMenator).  Here is the problem:  She can't fish.  It seems that an old version of the InSIMenator is still holding on and she can't find it.  She can't fish with or without the InSIMenator.  She can't create a family.

Here is what she has done to try and resolve the problem: She tried to use cleaninstaller but it is not compatible with Windows Vista.  She completely uninstalled all of the sims 2 games and EP and reinstall.  The problems still exists.    When she uninstalled, she saved her old files to a different folder and reinstalled those after reinstalling the games.  What else should she do?  She tried to post to this forum but didn't get a response.  Can anyone help?  Any suggestions?   :h3lp:  :sign6:
