Having Trouble Installing. - b-rad - 25-11-2009 11:02 PM

It keeps on saying that my game needs an update. So I say "Yes, Update" or whatever, and it says there is an error and it cannot update my game. So I go to do it manually, and it says my game is up to date!  And thoughts?

I had the same problem.
If you have windows, go to Start.  Search for "regedit"    Open it.    Scroll down to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE", then down to SOFTWARE, then to Sims3 .  Click SKU, and change the value to 2. That should do it.    If that doest work, change it to anything from 1-7.
