Hi everyone!
This is what I posted in another thread :
I had the same problem - freezing, and stuff... - but
- I realized that the game was just *über* slow, which lead me to...
- the answer on pcgamingwiki.com.
I quote:
Games designed before the release of multi-core CPUs may have issues on newer CPUs with multiple cores and Hyperthreading. If The Sims 2 does not progress in loading at startup, try the following: Run the game. Open Task Manager, and right-click the game's process. Click "Go to details". Right-click The Sims 2's process under details and click Set Affinity. Untick all CPUs except CPU 0. This setting is not saved and needs to be repeated after startup whenever necessary. Note that with the Ultimate Collection or any installation with many Stuff and Expansion packs, the initial loading screen will always take some time due to the amount of content included.
And it worked for me :-) even if it's annoying to run through the whole process everytime.
Hope this will help you!

Well, my game doesn't even appear in task manager. So, I'm not able to do that...
