File Transfer Sims 2 Question

Donna Novak
I have been trying to download Sims2. It let me put Disk 1 in and when it came to Disk 2 it said there was a transfer problem. I borrowed Disk 2 from a friend and the same thing happened. I then went to my other computer and made an exact copy which did allow me to download without transfer problems.

Descent 2 (Divide by zero)

Rangerdaniel
I'm trying to run Descent 2 on Windows XP, but every time I go to the automap, I'm getting a Divide by zero error. I've tried reinstalling, and I've tried the Windows patch, but I'm still getting the problem.

Well, I have a problem with the old Sims Unleashed. I bought the Sims2 game and really enjoyed it, and then I got the sims Unleashed for the old Sims game, thinking that there would be no problems with installing it.

Not sure if this is the right forum. But I have two machines with win98. Machines will show that the network is working and can share files etc. However when in RA95 both machines show network running in the game but one machine returns to menu not in to game to play when you join.

Star Wars KOTOR and ATi Radeon 8500

Jedi Master
I've tried running this game using drivers 4. 2 up to the current 4. 10. However, at various points, I get game crashes. The solution may be switching to a fully DirectX 9 compatible card (Nvidia or at least ATi Radeon 9200).
