Okay. I'm having trouble with my Sims:Makin' Magic
Everytime I start up the game
It runs for a minute then just closes
Everrrryytime
I tried adding -w to the shortcut
but that didn't work, I tried the other option on the site (Disabling APG)
but I can't for some reason
and the only program they have for download to help is for Windows 98
and doesn't have a version for Windows XP
So..I'm stuck.
If anyone has any idea what I should do please tell me!!!
Also I just had my computer re-formatted recently
I thought whatever was interfering with the game would be gone
but I guess not
P.S. I'm not really a computer savvy person so you might need to explain things a bit
*Update*
Okay, I changed my screen resolution to 800x600
and the color quality to highest 32 bit resolution
then I added -nodx6 -skip_verify -skip_intro -w
to the Sims shortcut but still didn't work.
I downloaded the ivi_fix.zip
still nothing
I added -nosound to the shortcut
still nothing
For detailed explanations message me
I don't think that's the issue
I had it running perfectly fine for along time
like a year or more i believe so
but then just one day it started doing that
I uninstalled it and then reinstalled it but that didn't work
Ever since it randomly shut off on me it's been doing that
I had my pc reformatted and it worked for like half an hour
then it just froze so i had close it now it's back to doing the same thing
opening then closing a minute later
Any ideas?
