| RE: component transfer error for sims deluxe edition
Actually, the website DOES help. THe thing about the game is that it DOES NOT work with newer computers because it is such an old game. The same disc that didn't work on my Vista worked on my old 2005 Windows. So there. But this website really helps... search the sims. it will give you a bunch of the sims 2 and 3, but try to find the sims original. it will be something like thesims.ea.com... then go to help... then to the Superstar help section, then listed in the questions it will say something about component transfer errors, and click on that. Then, if you're committed to playing the game, follow all the directions, they are easy to follow even though they look hard. Just do what they say and it could get your game working :) good luck to you all.

| RE: component transfer error for sims deluxe edition
ERROR - Component Transfer Error
This is due to the cd-rom speed dipping below acceptable reading
levels for the Install Shield software to read accurately.
First, check to see if there are any scratches, fingerprints, or marks
of any kind on the disk surface. Something even as small as a piece of
hair or a very light scratch can cause this error. If you find any
fingerprints or debris try cleaning the CD with a soft cotton cloth.
If after cleaning the CD the error still occurs, or if there are still
scratches you can send the CD in to be replaced. You can contact our
warranty department at (650) 628-1900 to exchange your disk for a new
one. To replace your software you will need a sales receipt dated
within the 90-day warranty period. Electronic Arts warrants its
software to the original purchaser that Electronic Arts' software is
free from defects for a period of 90-days as stated in the manual. If
the disk has been misused, or the 90-day warranty has passed, then a
fee will be assessed to replace the software.
FEES:
Floppy Disk and PC-CD products: $7.50 per CD
GameCube, G.B.Advanced, G.B. Color,
PlayStation, Playstation 2, & Xbox products: $15.00
Nintendo 64 cartridges: $30.00
All manuals: $5.00
Reference Cards: $3.00
ADDRESS:
EA Customer Warranty
P. O. Box 9025
Redwood City, CA 94065-9025
Warranty #: (650) 628-1900
Warranty emails: warranty@ea.com
Please send the disk, a brief note describing the defect and a sales
receipt dated within the 90-day warranty. If a fee is applicable,
please include a check or money order for the corresponding amount to
replace the disk.
If you do not find any scratches, fingerprints, or marks of any kind
on your CD, try renaming the InstallShield folder, located in
C:\Program Files\Common Files\InstallShield, to InstallShieldOld.
Start the installation again to reinstall the InstallShield components
with the newest version.
If the above does not work, try the following CD Troubleshooting
steps;
For Windows XP:
First, make sure that you are logged in as the Administrator (for
Windows XP Professional) or Owner (for Windows XP Home). This will
usually be the first account that was created once Windows XP was
fully installed. If you are not certain, contact the manufacturer of
your PC for assistance in finding your Administrator/Owner account.
Next, make sure that all background tasks are closed before running
the game. To do this;
Hold the Ctrl and Alt keys down at the same time and hit the Del key
once. This will in turn bring up a window called "Task Manager". You
will then see 5 tabs; Applications, Processes, Performance,
networking, and Users. Select the Processes tab; this will list all
current programs that are running. Close all programs that have your
login ID next to them. Your user ID is listed in the second column
next to the program name. For example here is a portion of what you
should see;
Image Name User Name Session ID
Explorer.exe Owner 01
The Image Name column is the name of the programs currently running.
The User Name column is where you will find your User Name. The best
way to check this is to locate "Explorer" and see what it says under
User Name.
Also, do not close any applications that say "System" next to them. Be
sure not to close a program labeled "Explorer" or "Taskmgr" as well.
You close each one of these applications by clicking on each one and
hitting the button "End Process". Note some applications may take
multiple times before closing. Don't worry that you are permanently
changing your system configuration; these applications will return
when you restart your system.
If that fails to help resolve the issue, try downloading the SafeDisk
update from the following website;
http://www.macrovision.com/solutions/software/fix.php3
If the game still fails to start, try running the installation for the
game using the Program Compatibility Wizard. You can find the wizard
program by clicking on Start - All Programs - Accessories and you will
see the shortcut for Program Compatibility Wizard listed there. Make
sure that as you walk thru the menus that you select the option "I
want to use the program in the CD-ROM drive." which will be the
options on the second screen of the wizard. Once that is selected,
select the option "Do not apply compatibility mode" which will be on
the next screen. Be sure to only have checked "Disable Visual Themes";
do not apply any other graphical settings. If any are selected be sure
to uncheck them before continuing. Continue to follow the screens
until it asks you to test your settings, which will activate the
autoplay menu to install your game.
If the previous steps did not work, and you have 3000mb of free space
on your hard drive, you can copy the entire cd to the hard drive and
install the game from there. Follow these steps...
1. Right-click on your desktop, select New, click Folder, and name the
folder CD Copy.
2. Double-click My Computer, right-click on your cdrom and click open.
3. Press control+A to highlight everything, and then press control+C
to copy everything.
4. Double-click the CD Copy folder, right-click in center of the
folder and click paste.
5. Remove the cd from the cdrom drive.
6. Insert CD2, double-click on My Computer, right-click on your cdrom
and click open.
7. Double-click on the Setup folder.
8. Right-click on the data3 file and click copy.
9. Go back into the Setup folder in CD Copy then right-click in center
of the folder and click paste.
10. Repeat steps 6 through 9 in order to copy the data4 file.
11. Double-click the CD Copy folder, double-click the setup folder,
and then double-click the setup file (the icon will look like a
computer).
After you are finished installing, you can delete the CD Copy folder.
For Windows 95/98/ME:
Try installing the latest version of DCOM for your operating system.
Here are the URL's to download the version for your operating system;
Windows 95:
http://www.microsoft.com/com/dcom/
dcom95/dcom1_3.asp
Windows 98:
http://www.microsoft.com/com/dcom/
dcom98/dcom1_3.asp
If that does not help, please follow the steps below to ensure a more
compatible CD-ROM setting:
a. Press the right mouse button on the "My Computer" icon from your
Desktop.
b. Select "Properties" from the menu that appears.
c. Select the "Performance" tab from the "System Properties" window.
d. Select the "File System..." button.
e. Select the "CD-ROM" tab from the " File System Properties" window.
f. "Supplemental Cache Size:" should be is set to "Large."
g. "Optimize Access Pattern for:" should be set to "Quad-speed or
higher."
Try starting up the installation now.
If those settings are already correct, try setting the Supplemental
cache size for your cdrom drive to "Small" and the Optimize access
pattern settings to "No Read Ahead" (NOTE: if these changes do not
help get the game running I would recommend that you restore the
original settings after trying this)
Also, if you have any virus protection programs like Norton or McAfee,
temporarily disable them by right clicking on the icon in your system
tray in the lower right corner of the desktop and selecting "Disable"
or "Exit". Also be sure to end all background programs before
attempting installation. Do this by hitting Ctrl+Alt+Delete
simultaneously and end tasking all applications except for Explorer
and systray.
If the game still won't start up, try rebooting your computer, then
before you do anything, make sure to end all background tasks then try
starting up the game.
If you are still receiving the same error message, then try checking
Sync data Transfer for your CDrom Drive.
1. Right Click on My Computer and choose properties from the drop down
menu
2. Click on the tab that says device manager
3. Click on the + to the left of CDROM in the list of devices
4. Double click on the CDrom drive under there
5. Click on the Settings tab
6 Put a checkmark in Sync Data Transfer
7. Click "ok" and restart your computer
8. Give the installation a run
Also, make sure that the default cdrom drive in windows for playing
audio cd's is the cdrom drive that you installed the game from.
1) Go to "CONTROL PANEL" (click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel)
2) Double-Click "MULTIMEDIA"
3) Click "CD MUSIC" Tab
4) Where is says: "Default CD-ROM drive for playing CD music", choose
the letter of the drive that the game was installed from.
You can also try disabling DMA for your cdrom drive if you have that
option.
1. Right Click on My Computer and choose properties from the drop down
menu
2. Click on the tab that says device manager
3. Click on the + to the left of CDROM in the list of devices
4. Double click on the CDrom drive under there
5. Click on the Settings tab
6 Uncheck DMA if it is already checked (if you have this option
available)
7. Click "ok" and restart your computer
8. Give the installation a run
(NOTE: if these changes do not help get the game running I would
recommend that you restore the original settings after trying this)
If the previous steps did not work, and you have 3000mb of free space
on your hard drive, you can copy the entire cd to the hard drive and
install the game from there. Follow these steps...
1. Right-click on your desktop, select New, click Folder, and name the
folder CD Copy.
2. Double-click My Computer, right-click on your cdrom and click open.
3. Press control+A to highlight everything, and then press control+C
to copy everything.
4. Double-click the CD Copy folder, right-click in center of the
folder and click paste.
5. Remove the cd from the cdrom drive.
6. Insert CD2, double-click on My Computer, right-click on your cdrom
and click open.
7. Double-click on the Setup folder.
8. Right-click on the data3 file and click copy.
9. Go back into the Setup folder in CD Copy then right-click in center
of the folder and click paste.
10. Repeat steps 6 through 9 in order to copy the data4 file.
11. Double-click the CD Copy folder, double-click the setup folder,
and then double-click the setup file (the icon will look like a
computer).
After you are finished installing, you can delete the CD Copy folder.
If you still get the same error message, try exchanging the game at
the store of purchase for a different copy to see if that helps.
If the issue persists, we can exchange your game for a sealed copy
that you can return to the store from which it was purchased. Send the
entire game (CD ROM and packaging) along with a copy of the receipt, a
return address, daytime phone number, and a brief note explaining your
situation to:
Electronic Arts Customer Warranty
PO Box 9025
Redwood City CA, 94065-9025
An exchange for a sealed copy must be sent within 90 days of the
original purchase. Any further questions regarding our warranty policy
should be sent to warranty@ea.com. We suggest that customers use a
traceable method when sending in software for replacement. Electronic
Arts is not responsible for any packages lost in the mail. |
