THE SIMS 2: APARTMENT LIFE HELP.


Question Posted Friday August 29 2008, 7:24 pm

I apologize if this seems a little vague, but I'm flipping out right now.

I just got Apartment Life, and I was so stoked to play it. I put in in the DVD-CD ROM, and the only thing that happened, was that a small disc appeared next to my cursor. The disc stayed there for about ten to fifteen seconds, then nothing happened.

I tried manually installing it, but when I open my D: drive in My Computer, it doesn't show anything when the disc is in.
Is there an issue with autorun, or Install Shield, or something?

I put in my Seasons disc, since I never got Boy Voyage or Freetime and the autorun worked perfectly.


Help? :(

Right click the D: drive and click "explore". If you get an error or if the folder is empty, then it's a problem with your CD drive or the disk itself. If you've never had a problem like this before, I would guess the later.

If there are files there, double-click "install.exe" or "setup.exe". If that works, then it was a problem with autorun. If that doesn't work, it's a problem with your computer. Probably your antivirus.
