Re: The Sims Deluxe Edition

@bmarshall1103 , here are some step by step instructions on how to install either The Sims (original game) or Sims 2 on your Windows 10 computer.

1) Insert your Sims CD/DVD into your disk drive. Open up your local hard drive and go to File, New Folder.  Create a new file and name this folder "Disk Images."

2) Go into the "Disk Images" folder and create another folder called "Disk1." If you're installing a version of The Sims or an expansion pack with multiple disks, create folders for each disk. Label them "Disk2," "Disk3" and "Disk4." *Note* It is important you do not put a space in between "Disk" and the number you use.

3) Open up "My Computer" and select your Sims CD. If the autorun comes up, cancel it as well as the installation.

4) Right-click The Sims CD. Click "Explore."

5) Click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window and choose "Select All." You can also press CTRL+A.

6) Click on the "Edit" tab again and select "Copy." CTRL+C also works.

7) Head into your "Disk1" folder. Go to the "Edit" tab and select "Paste." CTRL+V works as well. Continue until you've copied and pasted the information from all the disks into their appropriate folders.

8) Find the autorun file in the "Disk1" folder and double click it. This should install the game as normal. When you are finished, you can delete the "Disk Images" folder.

Tips

If you encounter any file transfer errors when copying and pasting, try cleaning your disk. If that fails, your disk is either scratched or corrupted.

Please let me know if this works.
