Problem with the 0x0175dcbb error and the crack for sims 3 ST. [SOLVED]

Hi guys

first i want to apologize for my english cuz i'm from bulgaria

i have a problem with the new sims 3 update. before the showtime came out i was with the r.g. catalyst's deluxe edition. but there is no showtime repack for that edition so i uninstalled everithing (and i mean everithing by uninstalling the game, delateing leftovers and cleaning the registers with ccleaner), after that i downloaded The Sims 3 Razor1911 and The Sims 3 Showtime FLT. but when i installed the showtime the launcher gave me the "there was an error during startup. please see the log for more information." error. i saw the log file...and there was nothing! so...when i tryed to start the game from the TS3W file there was the "unable to start the game. service initialization failed (0x0175dcbb) " error. then i've tryed everiyhing that i saw in the forums including the fix from this forum - i followed all the instructions and...nothing! my latest try was to update only the base game and try to run it...and after the install - the same problem appeared. so i replaced the "TS3" and "TSLHost" from the "base game" folder from the fix and guess what?! - the game and the launcher run! so after that i installed the showtime and when i try the launcher was working but the game wasn't ! so i put the files from the "# Crack" folder in the bin folder in the base game...and i get back to the "there was an error during startup..." and the "0x0175dcbb" errors.


so i think the problem is in the crack but there is no other cracks and i can't find a way to run the game! so pleaseeee help me!

Please download and apply our Ultimate Fix and let us know the result: https://games4theworld.forumotion.com/t752-the-sims-3-ultimate-fix-should-fix-most-of-your-problems

Good luck!

@admin - i've tryed the Ultimate Fix and the problem still !

@ Lady ElDi - no i didn't restart...i'm gonna try this and i'll tell you the result

UPDATE: i've tryed restarting after uninstalling, after the installing of the new base game, and after installing the sims 3 showtime...and still the same problem i'm now officially desperate!!!

i've tryed that...before the uninstall, after the uninstall,before the install and after the install...and the problem is still the same!

i've downloaded the 5.0th version of the r.g. catalyst's repack (i found it today but i can't post a link cuz i'm a new member) and includes the Showtime. i installed it and it's perfectly working!!!

anyway 10x for the suggestions!
