Always this error! I move into a household and after some second of gameplay i get this error!!

Also, i noticed that i have two folders "Electronic Arts" in my documents. One in my user name and one other in public documents. Whichever folder i delete, it regenerates itself.

I do all the steps right! I used to play this game without any problem old days..

What you could do is backup your save and anything else you dont want to lose just in case it you do lose data..........

If a new folder IS created it will just overwrite the one you have now but if you have no saved content on the current one then it shouldnt affect your gameplay

I did it and a new folder is created in : C:\Users\Public\Documents\Electronic Arts

Intead of : C:\Users\Admin\Documents\Electronic Arts

Why?

Also now i get no error, but i can't start the launcher. Should i remove something from dep?

//EDIT

Again the error!!

DasmX86Dll.dll not found

What the hell? Sad

I did these over 10 times! I'm tired!

Now i have it in windowed mode. No error in game, but i can't open the save game! It says " A serious error has occured!

//EDIT

If i buy the original game + some expansions, will i have these problems?


//EDIT

I cant install the 1.32 again. It says : invalid file after some progress.

//EDIT

Maybe the real problem is the sims3 file?

Hello,

It doesn't matter which release you have as long as it's not a modified installer. Your base game didn't cause this problem and buying the games isn't going to solve it, I can assure you.
Now it seems to me that the win95 compatibility mode doesn't work for you. It helps a lot of people with crashes but creates additional problems for some, which is the case here. You'll have to undo the compatibility mode and also check for it in your registry as described here.
Besides this error, are you, or were you, getting an error about an unofficial game modification on start up?
What is your base game version (as show in the image below)?
How does your pc score when you test if it meets the requirements?

Now i have only ambitions and town life stuff. No error, no save error, nothing! But i have the DEP trick.

With compatibility in windows 95, caused many problems.

I will try now to install late night and then pets, and see what causes the problem.. I'm sure that pets causing it.

I don't have the unofficial game modification error on startup.

The game version is 1.32.3.015002
