Hi,
I'm having alot of trouble installing Sims 2 on my dads p.c...
After picking 'English' language, the game then stated that I must have administrative privelleges to install the game.
 So I got my dad to give me Administrative Priviledges...
Then it asked me to enter the 'entire code' (20 charectors long) on the back of the user guide book, so I punched in this code. Then the disc spun a bit...

Now here's where the difficulties (my problem) is:-

It then asks...
_______________________________________________
'What type of user are you?'

# Typical User - Default directory
(C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Deluxe)

# Advanced User - Select directory

[C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Deluxe]
                                                                [Browse]
Install Size: 4097.61 MB

[Next>]    [Cancel]
________________________________________________

If I choose # Typical User - Default directory... Then I get this...

'There is not enough space available on drive to install the game.
Please free up some space or change the target location to a different disk.'
[OK]
_________________________________________________

If I click on # Advanced User - Select directory... Then the browser link becomes active ready for use...
I then can select any of the following options...

 - 'My Desktop'
 + My Documents
 + My Computer
 + My Network Places
 - Shared folder
__________________________________________________

If I select 'My Desktop' or 'My Documents'... It enters in the brower box this...

C:\Documents and Settings\ralph\Desktop

                     or

C:\Documents and Settings\ralph\My Documents

And when I click [Next>]... I get this message...

'Cannot install to the selected directory because it may cause the system to become unstable.'
___________________________________________________

If I choose 'My Network Places' or the following alternative in-options for 'Entire Network' and 'Microsoft Windows Network'...

It doesn't select anything and on clicking [Next] it reads (again like before)-

'There is not enough space available on drive to install the game.
Please free up some space or change the target location to a different disk.'
[OK]
____________________________________________________

Last option left... If I try 'Shared Folder' it gives me this again...

'Cannot install to the selected directory because it may cause the system to become unstable.'
____________________________________________________

I've tried making room by deleting a few things and have tried making a New Folder titled 'The Sims 2' but it gives me the same brick wall messages.


Can anyone tell me what I need to do, to get this game installed?
On my dads computer we all have our own user accounts, there's about 7 or 8 accounts. Usually when anything new is added to the computer - we All get it in ech of our accounts - like an updated Windows media player etc...
I'd like to install this game into my account only - if possible, so that others doen't have access to screw around with it.
But if anyone can tell me what I need to do - to get around this current problem first, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

I don't know what Sims game I need or if the format has to be P.C, as opposed to PS2?

Can anyone tell me what Sims game I need to get and what format etc...?

Thanks

Hi, I'm new to this website and I need some advice please...

See, I love creating celebrity faces/charectors on the Playstation 2 game - 'Smackdown-Shut Your Mouth', however it's tools for creating faces etc have got quite old now compared to some of the great celebrity lookalikes I've seen created on here - Michelle Pfeiffer, Natalie Mendoza etc...

My Problem...

I don't even own a Sims game yet, I bought one years ago for the PS2- thinking it would surely have better creating tools than 'Smackdown'...
However I soon found it had even less freedom for creation, less options and poor graphics. Also in game play seemed very high and far away angles - so even if there was detail, it wouldn't have been able to be seen. It may have been called 'Sims - Busting Out' although I can't remember for sure.

Help I need...

Can anyone here- who knows what Sim or other game I need to pick up tell me what is the one used to create these awesome likenesses I see created for this website? Or is there some kind of special device used to link a Playstation 2 up with the P.C in order to make these creations possible?
Do I need some kind of code breaker machine or something? To be honest I don't know sh#t about computers. I was hoping there might simply be a Sims game (for the p.s2) that has total freedom of creation to make these celebrity lookalikes. If so, maybe someone here could tell me what it's called?
Thanks
Ralph
