Disaster struck me last night.  I had just finished playing Sims2 a little
bit and had exited the program.  It always makes my computer very sluggish
afterwards, so, like always, I rebooted.
After the WindowsXP splash screen, I got a blue screen with only the mouse

i haven't been able to get the nudity cheat ('intprop censorgridsize
0') to work and i've read hear that others have had a similar problem.
the screen just freezes while they're in the shower or whatever and
then resumes when they put on clothes. is this how it works on the pc

You're not supposed to have a Sim fix a broken appliance if they don't

i am a little thrilled and a little disappointed. i love all of the
elements of realism they added, from the actual 3D look of it to the
concept of aging and family. but i hate that there's no downtown. i
mean there's a place to grill burgers and buy magazines, but no

I have problems putting ponds on my lots... When I try to put a pond it
turns bright RED, I have absolutly no idea why, and if the lot, like a Maxis
one already has a pond it's fine....
ANY IDEAS?!?!

Has anyone been able to install these?  I have downloaded them several times
and I always get a corrupt message when I try to open them.

I had them give the Reaper the full $10,000, but wonder what the minimum is
to avoid a zombie.

Children will not share bathrooms, will Young Adults (other than in
dorms)?
