Re: Sims 2 not responding
This can be due to any customize application you have installed due to such application conflict cause problem.so try to remove most recent downloads and then try to start sim 2 and check result.other wise Right click on the shortcut you normally use to run your game, and choose Properties. For Target, you will see something like "C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSBin\Sims2.exe"
Type -w after it, so it looks like this:
"C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2\TSBin\Sims2.exe" -w
use this windowed mode
