I'd thought I pop in and out of this forum...try this driver if you have a Nvidia videocard...driver 71.89...This BSOD happens to alot of people and I can't help much with that problem since I never had a BSOD with the Sims 2...actually only once did I ever get a BSOD on this machine...for more info you can try MTS site...

Seems 2 me I'm 1 of the few not having BSOD...gethane...did u test with memtest the long option...with that I mean the heavy tests which 4 1 GB of RAM takes around 8 hours or so...?
Let's c what the diffrence is between PC's that work fine and that don't work well..
ATM I have...
Intel 2,8 Ghz with 1 MB cache (overclocked to 3 Ghz)
Asus P4P800-E deluxe 865PE chipset
Aopen 6600GT (overclocked about 10%)
Sata 160 GB Maxtor (main HDD)
and 4 other HDD so around 890 GB
2x 512MB Corsair Twinx RAM + 2x 256MB Corsair Twinx RAM
Lite on DVD 16speed
Benq 1650 DVD writer
I'm running Windos XP with SP2 up 2 date till jan 2006
I've got all the sims installed except familypack and I updated all with patches...I had only 1 problem which I fixed since it was the lot...no other problems except with all the custom dl the game slows down sometimes...So basically I am a happy simmer...
I just wanna add...adding more RAM only means delaying the initial problem of a BSOD...U c a game or program uses part of ur memory and when it reaches a bad sector u get problems like data corruption or BSOD...adding memory only gives more space 4 the game or program 2 use...untill it reaches the bad sector again...just like a HDD...u can delay the problem...but it doesn't go away...
