| For some reason, I can't reinstall any of my Ep's or Sp's on my XP Comp. I had to reinstall as I was having problems with my game. The only on I could install was Season's, with no problems. DD is still loaded. When I tried to load BoB, prompt says, (All packs are already installed). Not sure why, because I had uninstalled them all, but DD. So I tried loading the rest by starting with Season's. Both CD's loaded good. When I try to install the others, the first CD for Bon Boyage goes in and I enter my code, then it asks me for the 2nd CD. I load it and it runs, and then asks me to load the 1st CD. I load it and press OK, and it runs. Then it says, (This product will now ensure that your exiting installation is up to date). (OK) I waited for about 5 mins, and nothing happened, so I pressed the OK button. Then it gives me a message, (Update process did not complete successfully. Installation will now terminate). Then it starts unloading. I attempt to do the same with the others and the same thing happens. Only differance is, while the 2nd CD is in, it runs to 100%, then gives me message #1, and when the OK button is pressed, it terminates. I have tried this several times. I've even waited for about 30 minutes before pressing the OK button, but nothing happens. Could it be due to TS2 closing? I'm not sure what's going on. I never had this problem before. Now can only load Season's. | |

ModTheSims might have a better idea whats up hun? |

| Okay! Nef and Pierre1. I will try this. I did not think about the Defrag. I have found some files on my Husband's logon, but may have missed something. I had BoB on his comp, but not on mine, as it seems to affect my CC's that I have. I noticed that I lost some things when I loaded BoB, so took it out of my comp. I may just load it back on mine I guess. I will try all of your suggestions. Thanks again! | |
