    Hello, I'm new to these forums and I found them by googling The Sims Troubleshooting. Anyhow, I have tried installing my 'The Sims Complete Collection' and it gets 95% done...I think it was at the Expansion4.far file. I have a picture of the error message at

    Note: I am not using my own CD key for this installation.

    Any help would be appreciated...

    I had the same problem with trying out the sims two after my sister put it on her computer. I tried it 3 times.

    The first time it repeadtly got stuck on a sound file at 49%
    The next two times it recognized my code as invalid.

    Ah well

    Did you ever figure out how to solve the problem? Or did you just end up not playing it? =P

    It was my sister's game anyways, and after my first ordeal it stopped recognizing the activation code so I just gave up...
