Please Help. Can I save my sims?

[xgkey9807]

I recently loaded the OFB expansion pack to my game.  I already had Pets, NL, and Seasons installed, and I am having a lot a problem.  Someone suggested I reload the expansion packs in order.  Is there a way that I can save my sims family that I have created before I do this?  :sad4:

If you have made jpegs for custom paintings you will want the Paintings folder too.

Save to the desktop for re-installation after you put the games back in.
