Hi, I was hoping someone could help me out...
Every time that I try to start the Sims 2, it starts to load and then freaks out and gives me this message:
Microsoft Windows detected and recovered from a device failure. Please save your work and reboot to restore full functionality.
I have tried everything to get this game to work.... I've installed drivers and patches, but nothing helps! Can anyone figure this one out for me?
Thanks |

Hello and welcome to the Lockergnome forums BleepinUFO!
Have you looked in the system logs for errors?
Does it only happen with this game? |
