Hi, I am experiencing an issue while trying to install the game. After pressing ‘start.exe’ and selecting the language, when I click the install icon, a window with an error pops up -> “Error installing iKernel.exe
Cannot copy iKernel.exe to ‘C:\Program Files(x86)\Common Files\InstallShield\Engine\6\Intel 32’. Make sure you have the appropriate permissions to copy files to this folder. (0x20)” and I can only click ‘ok’ button. What can I do? Please help 🙂

Hi. I went through the setup process (it would not let me place the file, only create a desktop shortcut, but I proceeded with the instructions anyway)…it loaded the launcher, but said to “insert disk 1” and would not let me pass the message!! I even tried to switch it to (pack 3). HELP!!!!!!!
P.S. I haven’t played this since my childhood, so I was VERY EXCITED to play it (The Sims: Complete Collection was my favorite back then)… 🙁
There is no any response after setup this game,why?
Hi, the cheat bar wont open at all. is there a fix to that?
ok the houses show.. but the interaction icons dont show.. like when i search for a job.. nothing shows up.. the game just freezes
i cant drag and drop the sims file into the maxis folder.. wont let me :/
Hi ! I’ve created a family and i’m trying trop create and decorate their home but items dont show up in the gallery, it’s only blue squares, so i don’t know what i’m clicking on :’)
Is there a solution?

Make sure you are running Windows XP Service Pack 3 and not 2 like the instruction say. It fixed my issue after some assistance program asked me if the game was running properly

“To continue with installation, please insert disc 1…”
Am I missing something?
