Whenever I try to install the Sims 2, it goes to 6% and i get a message saying
"A problem occured when trying to transfer the file 'TSData\Res\Sound\Voice1.package' from the media.
Do you want to retry to copy the file or cancel the installation?"
I click retry, and goes to 8% and i get the same message, and so on and so fourth.
I really don't know what's going on because I've had this game installed on my computer before, but I uninstalled it because I was getting a different error message while the game would be loading.
I have enough space on my computer for the game to be installed too.

I have Windows XP and my system is an eMachines T2796, only 2 years old.

Help please? :(

My first suggestion is you do a hard disk based install. Copy the files of the CD to your hard drive and run the setup from there.

Do you have enough hard disk space left? the sims is a pretty big game to be honest, i had to remove a few games n music to fit mine on(and my hard drive is 500 gig so image how much music that is lol!!!)

also if that doesent work try taking the game back n gettign another copie, tell them whats happened if they cant help you then i dont know!
