It could be you have a bad game, so you if you still have the reciept for your game you can return it at the store you bought it for a new sims 2. I've heard a lot of times people's sims 2 games don't install, but then they get a new one and it installs fine. If that doesn't work and you have windows, go here : http://thesims2.ea.com/help/detail.php?help_id=281 If it doesn't work and you have a mac go here: www.thesims2.com then go to help. Hope this Helped! :-)

Why won't the Sims 3 Medieval install on your computer?

It depends. If you don't ave some of the first sims 3 games like The sims 3 or sims 3 deluxe then you cant install it because Sims 3 midevil is an expansion pack for sims 3 or it may not download because you don't have enough room o your hard drive.


How do you download Sims 2 on your hp pavilion entertainment PC?

Just saying HP Computer is not enough to make a Yes or No on. Most PC's will hold Sims 2. My laptop can hold it perfectly and it's definitely not a gaming PC.


How do you install the sims 2 pets on your computer?

The Sims 2 pets is an expansion pack. To use it you must have the original version of the game. The Sims 2. The Sims 2 Pets does not contain the files needed to run the game. It only is the files to add Pets to your Sims 2 game. unfortunately you are going to have to purchase the Sims 2 also before you can ply your game. if you want to get it cheaper, I would suggest buying it off of eBay You could even borrow it from a friend and install it, because once you install it, you can install Sims 2 Pets and just run the game off the Pets CD.You don't really have to buy the game. Just find some way to get it installed on your computer.Hope this helps!

I just bought the Sims 2 pets and it won't install. This is my first Sims game and it says I need to buy the Sims 2. could I just buy the Sims 2 Double Deluxe?

Yes. Install the Deluxe version first and then the Pets expansion after. it should work now. lately, i haven't even seen sims 2 by itself... it always has some kind of expansion pack included... so it doesn't really matter if you get sims 2 by itself or not... _________________________________________________________________________ Or you could un-install your sims pets, install The sims 2, or a sims game that IS NOT an expansion pack, and install that. Then you can re-install Pets. Whoever posted this listen up.... On the front of the Sims 2 pets box it says EXPANSION PACK and on the back it says Expansion pack must have Sims 2 double deluxe or Sims 2 to play!! Please read more carefully in the future! yah, i guess you could buy the sims 2 double deluxe then reinstall the sims 2 pets.


My Sims 2 installation is freezing.It worked fine before.What is the problem now?

You could have installed something else that has nothing to do with Sims 2 but still takes up a lot of space on your hard drive. If you have a lot of expansion packs on your computer, then you should uninstall some of them and install those onto another computer that has a lot of memory on its hard drive.
