resolutions and gaming

smokinkane

I have what may be an obvious question. When you play games, any games, at a higher or lower resoltion than your destop resultion you get screen shrink. The different resolution has a different refresh rate, and isn't formatted to fill your screen.

Sims 2 "out of frequency"

foxytrina169

I recently installed Sims 2 Nightlife and from the very beginning my game was crashing. It worked fine before I installed the new expansion pack, so it was very odd. I fixed that problem by manually uninstalling the game from the registry, and I reinstalled it.

I dunno if I'm doing the cheats rong, but they never work. Is it just Gold Edition, or is it me and getting the cheats to work. And how do you work the cheats anyway?.

Sims 2 not installing....

morgonia

I've had Sims 2 a while now but a few months ago I got a new laptop. I uninstalled Sims, and went to install it on the new computer, I kept getting errors. On disc 1 it was installing 3% at a time, very slowly and kept showing errors all the way.
