Anyone else have problems with the sims using the sauna? It seems that the sim refuses to go in, and will just stand there on the spot untill the "go to sauna"-action disappears.
Am I doing something wrong or has this happened to anyone else?

Yes, I finally got fed up with my laptop and decided to buy a new computer. One of the most important things to consider when buying one though, is whether Sims 2 will run smoothly or not.
So... how does the following combination sound to you:
- Intel Core 2 Duo processor E6300 (1.86 GHz),
- 1024 MB RAM,
- 500 GB (2x250) hard disc,
- 256 MB ATI X1650SE graphic card.

(I have Uni, Nightlife and OFB. I'm also thinking about purchasing Seasons.)

I'd get that combo with a reasonable price (and a monitor, too!), but is it worth it? Thank you in advance, I totally suck when it comes to the technical stuff. :oops:

Okay, so I got this idea to have this family in my game to create a grocery store as a home business. I spent hours modifying their house to fit the purpose, but then when I was supposed to furnish the store, I realized you apparently can't use grocery store stuff on residential lots. At least they don't appear in the menus. Is there any way around this, or do I really need to make them purchase a community lot for their store? :icon9:
My original idea was to have them keep the store in the ground floor, and their apartment in the second floor.

Okay, I'm seriously confused here.
I just talked with a friend today and she mentioned that her game doesn't work: it loads for a while, and then shuts down on its own, as in returns to Windows.
We tried to come up with a solution for a long while, and finally gave up. Then couple of hours later I tried to launch my game, and... boom! It does exactly the same thing! Like... WHAT?!

Neither of us has installed anything out of ordinary, or messed with the game in any other way.
Does anyone have any idea what's the problem?
