This user has the following games installed:
Sims 2, University, Nightlife, Open for Business, Pets, Seasons, Bon Voyage, Free Time, Apartment Life
[SOLVED]Blank error message since latest windows update
I have the Sims 2 Ultimate Collection, so no CD's or DVD's, on a Windows 10 PC. I have had a lot of problems with my game crashing, so I have installed the 4GB Patch and used less CC what kind of helped but I now have a new problem: The game doesn't start. I played yesterday and when I wanted to turn off the computer I was informed that it (=Windows) would install a new update. Nothing new and I never had problems with updates. But when I tried to start the game today, after the update has sucessfully been installed, it would only show a blank error message when trying to start the game.
I found some older threads with the same problem (but not after an update) but no solution. I read the Game FAQ or however it's called, but the game wouldn't start even if I'd taken out the Downloads or all the User Data. I want to know if there's more options before reinstalling (or did I miss something from the FAQ?). Here's more information about the PC.
