Vista and downloads
Mooingloudly:
I've not had any problems with Vista and my downloads folder. It is a peculiar operating system, of course I consider anything other than ME a step up. ME was completely rubbish. I can't really comment on XP versus Vista only because I struggled along on Windows ME for 7 years. Now, I shall back away slowly before the gasps of horror begin. Generally my body shop takes FOREVER to load. But I'd imagine that has something to do with my scary downloads folder that I'm currently trying to organize. The M&G Body Shop is the one I use, I keep a short cut to it on my desk top so I don't accidentally chose the wrong one.

You used the Bodyshop under Mansions and Gardens? It's a long shot, but try using the one under Apartment Life.
Usually, I use the bodyshop from the newest SP or EP that I have in. I did try using the AL bodyshop, with the same results. I think I may have to uninstall the whole works and reinstall in and see if that helps. I've never had this may problems before with what is -- for all intents and purposes-- a vanilla game. :-\
Though, I'm wondering if I may have to rebuy all the games, since Vista wasn't out when they were released, or if there is something I can add to Vista to make it backwards compatible.
Chasing Sanity:
Right click on the icon for the base game. Go to compatibility. Tick the 'Run this program in compatibility mode for". Select XP and whatever service pack.

You don't have to repurchase the games. I have Vista, and my old copies work fine. I bought the base game the day it came out. So that shouldn't be a problem.
I'm sorry I can't be more help. Reinstalling everything is worth a try.

Did you try firing up Body Shop without the face replacements? Did you fire up Body Shop while connected to the internet with an antivirus protection program on? Do you have securom? Do you have enough gigs of memory and a competent processor to run both the Vista hog and the TS2 hog? Craptops aren't known for their gaming abilities, you know.
Your problem is definitely not in the installation of TS2 original copies. I installed all my EPs just fine...and yes, I bought TS2 when it came out. The game has no problems going from XP to Vista.
