A BIG Problem... Please help! =o( Hello there. I am an avid Simmer. ;o) I have a big problem as well. Last February I bought a new notebook just for my Sims2. Well- last night my game would not save. The hourglass tipped for nearly 15 minutes. I restarted, lost everything and tried to save again. Same thing happened. I tried a new family and the game would not stop loading to open that family's house. I restarted my computer. I then could not get the game to load a different neighborhood. What could have happened?! How do I fix it?? It really sucks!! HELP! Miserable and Sim-less, ~Alisha
