Sims 2 Trouble

10 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/sims-2-trouble.59664/

I currently bought Sims 2, and it installs fine, my computer meets the requirements, etc. When I go to play the game it comes up to the loading screen with all of the blocks. It will never get past "Preparing Captive Simulators" part before it says "Application has crashed/application will now terminate." Has anyone else had any similar problems? and what did you do to fix it?? Thanks for any help!

Is the game original?

yes it is

this is a known problem with Pirated Game

if the game is original, then u can just mail EA & get help

Look what I found

Play the game with CD instead of NoCD Crack

Btw wrong section

it appears to me that you have to pay to register with that site?.... and I AM playing with the bought CD from the store.

Try to patch it *thesims2.ea.com/update/?pid=Help_patches

I'm already all up to date....

I removed my saved games when uninstalling this last time...then it worked after i installed it. Must of had something to do w/my saved games....hmm....thanks for the help though
