Title: Re: Sims 2 Installation Post by: rwills on December 12, 2008, 04:38:39 am Most common reasons for this are:
1) Dirty disk 2) Security software interference So, first off clean the game disk. Next, disconnect from the internet, then turn off any anti-virus program and also any firewall you may have and then try the EP/SP installation. Less common reasons for what you report are: 1) Incomplete or faulty uninstall before reinstall. (Unlikely in your case as described, as you can install base game without probs.) 2) If running Vista, trying to install via a user account other than admin. 3) If a computer with dual core processor, not setting the compatibility of already installed items. (See here: http://modthesims2.com/wiki.php?title=Game_Help:Dual_Core_Issues for solution for that.) |
