So I made a post about a week abo about how I'm having trouble with my game. I've been so busy lately that I hadn't had much time to look into the issue further or check my lj here
raemia was lovely enough to help me out, but after trying to do the thing today, I discovered ANOTHER PROBLEM WOW
My most recent game is the Fun with Pets Collection so that's the disk and launcher I use to start up the game. When I go to make the new shortcut I can make it from the Pets expansion or either of the two stuff packs it came with. So I guess I need to run it from the collection as a whole? When I try running it from any of the tree options it gives me a message like this:
"You are running the wrong version of The Sims 2. Please run the Sims 2 Fun with Pets Collection instead."
So, like I said, I am a complete and total idiot when it comes to computers. So the solution to this problem is probably TOTALLY OBVIOUS. I wonder if there is
A.) A way to make a shortcut from the collection as a whole
B.) I need to run it from the last thing I installed (Kitchen and Bath Stuff)
C.) Can somehow run it with the base game disk (but that one is a collection too (Double Delux))
Again, I'd like to say THANK YOU to anyone who helps!! And also say SORRY for being so ridiculously incompetent
