1) Just purchase "TheSims" by Maxis and it works perfectly on Windows 2000 even thought
the box states "Windows NT not supported".
2) at this point i can not get through the copy portion of the setup. keep getting error 115. im sure there must be a way around this but on my machine i have not found one as of yet
3) In win2k Advanced server you can NOT copy the files, but in a dual boot with winME you can run it from your winME install under win2k Advanced Server, this is NOT applicaple to win2k pro edition
4) Game seems to run OK, but maybe after an hour or so of playing, game completely dies with no error message returning me back to the desktop at 1024x768. My desktop then acts retarded and I end up neeeding a reboot.

1) The screen turn black in the same second I start the game and I have to restart the PC
2) Well, it hangs up when started normally. But... try to run it with "-skip_verify -skip_intro" command line options. It works fine on my NT ! (PL version, sp 6a)
