Hi David,
The solutions were posted over 2 months ago, and seem to
have worked since she didn't post back for more assistance.
We have a Sims MVP who posts here, perhaps if you start
your own post about the issue, Katy will respond to you.
Also: There's a comprehensive FAQ for FS 2004 posted at.

| I am trying to load FS2004 onto my PC which has a brand new copy of xp home
| (with SP2), 40 GB hard disk, additional hard disk, 256mb RAM, and I keep
| getting the error message Mariah refers to. I've tried every fix mentioned
| in the support articles Jimmy refers to without success. I know it's a good
| copy of FS because it recently installed on the same PC when it was running
| windows 98 (after I had disabled DMA).
|
| Can anyone help, or is it not possible to install FS on a machine with SP2?
