Sims 2 and Windows 7

(1/12) > >>

MrMugg:
I did a search for Windows 7, but got tons of listings under just Windows and things with the number 7 in it.

Actually, I'm just wondering if anyone has fully tested out the Sims 2 expansions and stuff with Windows 7, and how well (or not) it's working.  So far, I am hearing good things about Windows 7 and that it is very stable for a Beta release.  I'd like to know what the community here thinks.

I have windows 7 too but have not tested it yet, at the moment I am running duel OS and I have to reinstall sims 2 but have moved and cant find my game disks. Is there a way of getting the sims to work with out installing them again.

Oh sure. Just copy over all the program files, then go into the registry and hand-enter all the entries for the sims, both the obvious ones and the hidden ones, in hex. Don't forget to make any changes that might be necessary to account for the differences between your current edition of windows and windows 7!

MrMugg:
Or just get the "arrr" versions.    ;D

...or just stick with Windows XP, a time-tested, well-supported alternative to Windows Vista 2.0
