    swmeek I got your benevolent dictator pal!!

    The sims 3 is on a dvd which means your cd rom can't read it or did you mean to say dvd drive? (sorry not trying to sound sarcastic)
    If it is a dvd drive check the disk for any smudges, scratches or anything that will cause the disk to not be read.
    If you know anybody with a dvd drive in their computer try it out in theirs because it if does at least give you the installation start up screen then it's a good sign your drive is probably failing.
