The Sims Computer Won't Shut Off +++
Simmerqueen:
I have only been playing Sims 2 since Dec. 26 (have NL, UNI, OFB and H&M Fashion installed - only hacks I have are collegeclock, stay shrub, teleporter shrub, phonehack & autoyak - last two I can't get to work, no CC). Until recently, have been pretty bug-free, but yesterday on one lot I had the following happen: Computer won't shut off even when they repeatedly shut it off (SX3 "noise" and picture keeps playing), teen was invited to community lot by another teen then called the taxi to get home and when taxi arrived she did not have it in her queue and didn't recognize it was there or get in so I had to quit and go back to neighborhood to get her back home (she had a dream date and got to go steady while she was there and I lost all that :(), used maxmotives cheat then shortly afterwards had a toddler selected and his energy bar shot right down to desperation red (everyone else in household was still on max green for everything).
Anyone hazard a guess as to what is going on? Thanks in advance for any input you can give me - I'm obviously a noob and not that computer savvy to boot, but hoping to improve. :-[
Gwill:
Maxmotives is buggy, from what I've heard.
Sound effects can get stuck. Deleting the computer might help, but I've had sounds get stuck long after the item was gone. The only solution then was to buldoze the lot.
If you can't get mods to work, rtfm. You might need some other macrotastic elements for them to work right.

Sorry to be dense, but what is "rtfm"? ??? And, um, what are macrotastic elements? ??? Maybe if I have to ask, I shouldn't be using them, hmmm?! :-[

RTFM = Read The Fucking Manual
Emma:
To fix stuck sound effects go into your audio options and change from 'stereo' to '4.0' go back in game, let it run for a couple of seconds, then go back into audio options and change it back. Looping sounds should be gone.
