Hi, I downloaded and installed Sims 2 Complete but it won't load, I can barely see the intro and it freezes at the Fun with Pets screen, oddly enough the music keeps playing, I've tried different compatibility options but nothing happens.

Ok, I'm no expert, just a stubborn and pety sonofabitch. I let that screen sit and play its stupid music for nigh on 20 minutes when bam: title screen. Apparently it has to transfer some blah blah files from here to there. Some = a gig or so. Give that a try. It may have been 25 minutes. I went downstairs for lunch and beer.
What stevek2703 said. Mine took 8 minutes to load the first time, but my PC is topnotch. Yours might need some more time, my Old XP PC took 15 minutes+ to load everytime I loaded up the Sims 2, even the first one it took awhile. If the music still plays, that's a good thing. Mine did the same thing, just give it a bit of time. Maybe watch some TV while you wait? Then just check back every so often, it'll load.
