Ok ok so I have almost the same problem as you all. I installed the game. I can play it with a no-cd crack but I can't build walls so I have to play with the cd (I hate playing with cds). I got 2 cd(1). The correcte one and the other one has the .iso on it. So here's the big deal. I just can't run the game. It shows the The Sims 2 logo but nothing else happen. My bf found an iso on the net and runs it with Alcohol 120% and it works fine. But the problem is that I can't make an iso of my original cd AND can't copy the iso (protected I supose) I have on my cd-rom on my HD. It says "Fonction MS-Dos non valide" (french => MS-DOS function incorrect). I have DirectX9.0c on my comp and have a bad but working gfx card. So what do you propose to me?
