Alrighty...Ive had so many problems with this damn game its not funny. The first problems were solved by doing the manual install, i kept getting an error with copying a file) i did exactly this 1 - Go into My Computer.
2 - Open drive C.
3 - Right-click inside the window and select New, and then Folder.
4 - Name the folder as Disk Images (it is important that the name has a space in it).
5 - Open the disk images folder.
6 - Right-click inside the window and select New, and then Folder.
7 - Name this folder Disk1.
8 - Repeat steps 6 and 7 while substituting Disk1 for Disk2 and so on until there are 4 'Disk' folders followed by a number 1 through 4. it is important to note there must not be a space between “Disk” and the number.
9 - Insert Disk 1 of The Sims 2 into your CD-Rom drive and if the autoplay starts, cancel it.
10 - Go into My Computer.
11 - Right-click on your CD-ROM drive and choose Open.
12 - When you see the contents of the disk in the Window, click on Edit at the top of the window and choose Select All.
13 - All the contents of the disk should now be highlighted, click on Edit at the top of the window again and choose Copy.
14 - Open the Disk1 folder you created under C:\Disk Images; click on Edit at the top of the window and choose Paste. This will copy the contents of the CD into the Disk1 folder.
15 - Repeat steps 9 through 14 for the remaining disks until you have copied each disk into its appropriate folder.
16 - Once all the disks have been copied, remove ALL CDs from any drives.
17 - Open the Disk1 folder under Disk Images and double-click on autorun.exe to start the installation.
18 - To save disk space, you can delete the Disk Images folders after the installation is complete.
as one of my friends have said to do...But now...a new problem has appeared. At about 50% the damn games requests that i put in disk 3. I have tried...Putting in disk three, going in to Disk3 folder are selecting auto run, ive tried other Cds ive let the computer think for a while ive tried almost everything i can think of. If someone could help me Id love them forever. Its my 3rd day of trying to get this to work and im about ready to shoot someone.

Ah, I see. You might want to take it back. You know anyone else who has the game?
