* Sims and WinXP Trouble *

[stephen8201]

I made a backup of The Sims and have been playing it for about a week now. My girlfriend was playing it yesterday just fine, and when I went to start the program last night, it said that the program messed up and asked if I wanted to send the error report to Microsoft and all of that crap before the game even loaded. I shut down and tried again and the same problem.

This morning I tried to run it again and it keeps giving me the same message. What could be wrong? I guess I'll just uninstall it and then reinstall. Any ideas on what could've gone wrong?

Also, I backed it up using CloneCd and Lite-On burner with Raw-Dao mode and all of that, so it's a 1:1 copy, and it's been working flawlessly.
