Default Startup - a blue screen forever
Hi! So when I start up my Ultimate Collection it's just a blue screen that lasts forever... not like blue screen-blue but the Sims 2 blue color right before all the little movies pop up, before the loading screen. It ran fine 5 minutes ago and I restarted the game and now nothings happening?

edit: I also hear the music, just that the screen isn't showing anything at all.

Did you delete your cache files?

I no longer come over to MTS very often but if you would like to ask me a question then you can find me on tumblr or my own site tflc. TFLC has an archive of all my CC downloads.
I'm here on tumblr and my site, tflc

If that does nothing go into your Origin account, right click on the game and see if heal is an option.
