Nightlife Nightmare

Problem solved about 10 minutes ago.  Disk #1 went into my drive E.  When I placed disk 2 in that drive, the installation hung up again so I ejected it and placed it in drive D.  Bingo.  I find that really odd but lots of things are odd about the Sims.

Wished I had read Baa's message first so I could have tried putting both disks in at the same time.  Will keep that in mind for the future.

Thanks very much everyone for taking the time to offer help.

Off to explore that bowling alley!

Hmm, good that your game was installed. I had to try like five different ways to get it to install before I thought of putting the discs in separate drives. You know the funny thing? It was an accident that I put 'em in separate trays.

am curiouz, dizzy-two - just how long did it take you to install NL?

It took me a mere 17 minutes. I consider that to be a long long time to just to do an install. :P


haha, on my old computer, which was a 600mhz processor, 192 ram pentium 3, the installation for the basic TS2 game took an hour! how's that for sloooooww...

And on Monday I'm going to install the Sims 2 onto a 286....



... Just kidding :P

ElviraGoth:
It took me 4 tries to install NL.  The first time, stopped at 51%.  The second time, got all the way through, stopped at "please wait".  The third time, stopped at 51%.  The fourth time, I put the cds in my other drive and it took.

Wish I had thought to use both drives, too.  I was at it for 2 hours.
