I paid a fortune for Sims 1,2 and 3 plus all the game manuals as well. I sometimes feel that it's Microsoft's fault as well as Maxis/EAs. No wonder people didn't want to get rid of their Windows XP machines. That OS was more sympathetic to older games and even Windows 7 was ok.
Nowadays Microsoft just admits airily that some of our games won't play on Windows 10 or 11. Grrh. :s :'(
Am a veteran of both DOS and just about every Windows version released and can say from experience that XP is the best of the bunch. User friendly, runs just about everything regardless of age, and not overloaded with apps that not everyone wants.
