I followed the instructions but when I ran the ad, it said “Please insert the correct DVD-ROM”
Same problem too
Why was my comment removed? just helping others.
Pasted crack .exe file in TSbin, still asks for correct cd rom. this method does not work as of 8/18/2024
I have a windows 11 I changed the xp but it says there is not enough room to fit the NoCD verison how can I fix this?
recently downloaded but my game crashes before i can start. also my sims and buildings are black or pruple ; /
Search youtube for William Mullaney. His video helped me a lot to run the game.
I installed the game, and i seem to have all the expansions… except for Ikea stuff for some reason. The items from this pack just. Don’t show up in my game. Do you know what might be causing this? Do i need to download the Ikea stuff separately?
You do need to download separately. All the cracks I have found of this exclude it for some reason & I’m not sure why exactly D:
Okay so for all the people trying to get this on windows 11 , if its not working try clicking on the icon ‘Sims_2″ and choose properties then change compatibility to Windows XP pack 2 or 3 and it should run it without problem. I just spend few hours trying to figure that out so now you dont have tooo.. YW <3
I did this and it is still giving me the same error message that the CD ROM is missing
You need to go into the NoCD folder on the ISO and copy paste that to C:/Program Files(x86)/EA GAMES/The Sims 2/TSBIN and delete the existing Sims2.exe.
where is the ‘sims_2’ ?
After installation follow instructions
I’d have an error with only red error icon, game won’t open
