Blah, blah, blah: Snarl. Rage.
Sep. 27th, 2009 01:19 pmSo the stuff packs won't install. Apparently something I did at some point in the past--like, oh, having all the expansions--is making their stupid updater choke.
=___________=
I can try one more thing--reinstall BV, which magically uninstalled itself at some point but I've not bothered to reinstall--and then my options... well, suck. I can install the base game on my clunky old laptop and install the stuff packs and SimPE and rip it all from there--or I can uninstall everything on here (yes I have backed up) and do the Dance of 1000 Disks and reinstall on here. Possibly minus Uni, NL, and BV--no, wait, gotta have BV for beach lots. ASS.
OR I COULD JUST REINSTALL ALL OF WINDOWS WHILE I'M AT IT. *headdesk* Not that it doesn't kinda need it because I'm sick of dealing with Finnish Windows... no no no that way lies madness!
I really only wanted these packs to rip clothes and hair and a few objects out. Muuuuh.
[Edit] BV won't even reinstall. I am defeated. The only bright side to this is I have ALL of my disks in one CD folder.
[Son of Edit] Everything is reinstalled. It took threeish hours to do it, but in the process I did a load of laundry, tidied and took out the recycling, and cleaned off my partner's desk... which was easily the worst part. He bought me a pizza for my efforts. X)
