I have tried to install the patch on both drives. The problem is the update stating the game is not installed or needs to be re-installed. Ok, so i havent reinstalled the sims 2 yet, because it keeps telling me it needs to install more information on C: plus its not running at 10,000RPM like the G: is, so you can see why i want to install the sims 2 on G: I dont have enough space on the C: for the sims 2 and the expansion when it comes out. It gives me no choices as to which drive I would rather it go to. So, regardless - I un-install, then re-install and it says it needs to put additional info in C: again.
(i have played the game, so i know it runs)
When i go to install the patch, i get an error that states the sims 2 is not installed or installed incorrectly and to re-install or install the sims 2. When installing, it says it needs to store additional information in C: I installed the sims 2 on a secondary drive - G: Any ideas? Thanks, I greatly appreciate it. My drive just won't read disc 2 for some reason. My computer meets and exceeds all system requirements, I do not have any CD emulators, my game is not the wrong version, and there are no scratches on my cds. I've been to all the forums dealing with sims 2. Is there any way I can copy the files from all the cd's and do an install from my hard drive? I tried it but it still asks to insert disc 2 after installing disc 1. The weird thing is, my web server can read disc 2 and copy the files from it. (Note: I did not accidently buy the DVD version of the game) Now, my cd drive won't even read Disc 2, but it has no trouble reading disc 1,3, and 4. So I brought my game back and got a new one. I tried copying the files over to my computer. so instead of trying to "install" disc 2. I tried it on 4 different computers and it always happened on Disc 2 on the same file.
