Sims + Sims Packs not loading properly

Hello, I downloaded the sims and sims 2 when they went for sale last year. I just tries to launch the sims 1 for the first time yesterday and it isnt working. It keeps closing and flashing to my desktop every 3-5 seconds. Anyone have this issue or know how to fix it? Ive already tried hitting "repair" on the game and nothing

  • Hey! What system do you have? Do you have a Vulkan compatible GPU? :)

    Hi it is a windows computer. I am not sure what that is but my sims 2 from the same purchase bundle works properly if that makes a difference
