Win2000 SP3 and Sims house party
Hi! I have The Sims and 2 expansion packs, Livin Large and House Party (Hot date soon I hope). All of them are original CDs and worked just fine until today. . . ;( On my Win2000 sp2, it worked in fact very well! I could even do task switching!! But this was a week ago.
Hi!
I have The Sims and 2 expansion packs, Livin Large and House Party (Hot date soon I hope). All of them are original CDs and worked just fine until today... ;(
On my Win2000 sp2, it worked in fact very well! I could even do task switching!! But this was a week ago.
Then I installed some new graphics drivers for my GeForce 2 MX. I updated 29.42 to version 30.82 with drivers from the actual card manufacturer, Creative.
AND!!! I have also installed, a week ago SP3, and now the game just doesn´t run properly!!! A few seconds after entering the game itself (after the main menu) the game just exits to desktop!!!!!!!! Always!!!
Don´t know what to do specially because I can´t uninstall SP3...
Anyway, does anybody have this game working on SP3 or does anybody have similar problem with SP3???
I have a lot of other games and ALL of them run fine!! Even EA games like FIFA 2002!
Don´t know what to do....
Thanx in advance

Oops... Solved the problem!! It was just a bad saved game files problem!!
Used sims file cop and it found a few bad textures in one neighborhood that caused the game to crash!!
Well, I lost that neighborhood and I'll have to start it again but the important is the game works like a charm again!!!
Thanx anyway! 8)
