Sims 2 and Windows 7
GelatinousSubstance:
I'm not sure I fully understand what you're saying.
I'm assuming you have the game successfully installed. But it gets fuzzy when you talk about the patch. Are you saying you're having difficulty with a no-cd patch, or the actual patch for the game?
I think you're talking about a no-cd patch. If that's the case, you may run into difficulties if the base game you're running is a bundled package (base game with an EP or an SP).
You also didn't mention whether or not you have any EPs or SPs installed. That information would help.
As far as win7 and The Sims 2 goes, there are no issues.

I know this is an old thread, but how does one transfer the registry files from XP to Windows 7? I haven't had any experience with Regedit beyond opening it, but I really would love it if I could run the Sims 2 at a good speed for once in my life.
(Feel free to P&L at me for this. I won't mind too much. :))

As far as I know you can't transfer registry files from one OS to another. Do you have both installed on the same machine? The speed would be determined by your CPU. If it's a new machine you should just install the game on it the normal way.

No, I do not, and there is no way I can install the Sims 2 using the discs.
Aquilegia:
No, .reg files from one OS aren't going to work on another.
If you absolutely cannot use the discs (are you playing on a netbook? Because that's a Bad Plan), you'll either need to make ISOs of them on a different computer and transfer via USB stick or portable hard drive, or download them via torrent. In either case you'll have to install Daemon Tools on the current one (it's free) so it can read those ISOs and allow you to install.
