Changing Drives

http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php?topic=7120.0 - Venusy posted a thread quite a bit ago about moving the main install on a portable drive, in the end it ended up being a frankenbuild of sorts.

(My) Documents is a special folder in Windows, chances are it'll remake it if you don't tell it where you moved it.  Right click on "My Documents" in the Start Menu and right click properties.  Then click the Target(or Location) tab and then "Move..." if you haven't done so already but if you already have then click "Find Target..." and point it to where you put the folder.  I don't know if TS2 will adapt to this location, but it'll fix it for the rest of Windows.

I did that for the mydocuments folder and everthing else Windows follows it so that's fine so far buy BodyShop opens and then freezes for like 20 minutes and then I just force it to close because it isn't doing anything...guess I'll just have to put everything back to how it was.

Thanks for the help anyways.

Have you tried deleting Groups.cache from the EA Games/The Sims 2 folder?
I usually move My Documents to a seperate hard drive soon after a clean install of Windows.

Aha!  I knew I had seen instructions on how to change the location of My Documents, and I finally remembered where. http://www.modthesims2.com/article.php?t=53400

What I wish for, and haven't seen, is a way to take the EA Games folder out of My Documents, so My Documents would only be used for stuff like, yanno, my documents.  It would make it a whole lot easier when I want to backup everything except Sims.
