Sims 1 start.exe not doing anything

I downloaded the torrent, extracted the files. Clicked on the start.exe file and nothing is happening. The loading ring appears near my mouse pointer to acknowledge I pressed it then nothing. I've deleted it and downloaded it again this hasn't made a difference. Any ideas that could help?

Run as an administrator

If start.exe does not react, go to the Folder Setup and try to run Setup_your language
