Patch 1.8 FML!!! (yes, 1.8, I went there)

<< < (2/6) > >>

ChilltownNJ:
The fact that you have Windows Vista doesn't help matters either.  Just thought I should point that out.  <<ducks>>
And be careful with double posting, I have seen people literally get eaten alive because of it.

dominno:
When I had XP it didn't run nicely either. Ah, I'll just have to reinstall for like the 20th time and avoid that stupid patch.

Thanks for the heads up. Yes I've seen it happen myself, it's a terrifying thing. My desperation got to a more terrifying point, sadly.

ChilltownNJ:
Have you tried running the sims 3 executable, bypassing EADM, straight into the game?
Also, I wonder if your issue may be tied to vista's crappy Administrative Security Settings.

dominno:
I just tried that and it gave me a window saying the same. That my version was incompatible and I should update via launcher, and the launcher keeps telling me it can't connect to EADM, which I wouldn't care about if it only let me run my game. So far I've read so many threads here and have tried a bit of everything but nothing works. I have once again, deleted everything to the core. I've gone back to installing both Base and WA, patching up to 1.7, I fixed some bad CC with Delphy's CC dashboard and I will try running my game up to 1.7 and Awesome. I'm hoping with patch 1.9 and the HELS pack it will go back to running.

As for the Administrative Security Settings, I've disabled them. EADM and the launcher still seem unable to find each other, even if I open the EADM first.

Gosh, thank you for your patience with me.  :D

ChilltownNJ:
Have you tried re-downloading the patch?  It is possible that the patch was corrupted during the initial download.  Also, try getting your patch from an alternate source and see how that goes.  I also noticed, in another thread, that someone had issues with EADM until they disabled their virus scanner and firewall.
