As for the no CD crack, you'll need to find one that is for the most recent expansion or stuff pack that you have installed (if you are running Ultimate Collection, that would be Mansion and Garden Stuff).īe cautious when browsing the web for a No CD crack, as some sites might contain unsavoury files.
You can follow this guy here, or this guide here on how to remove SecuROM from your game. Origin will reinstall SecuROM each and every time you run the game without a No CD crack added, which is why the latter must be added (the No CD crack). SecuROM seems to cause a stir with some people running Sims 2 on Windows 10, and the issue doesn't go away by simply removing it. The problem for me was solved by correcting two issues: removing SecuROM and adding a No CD crack to the game. For me, I'm running the Ultimate Collection, but I've been told that the issue can still exist with those who use CDs. I recently upgraded back to Windows 10, and was determined to get to the root of the problem. It actually caused me to revert back to Windows 7 a few months ago, seeing as I build so often, I just couldn't handle the sluggish performance. I can confirm SecuROM really is the problem and removing it does solve it.īelieve it or not, this issue has plagued me ever since my update to Windows 10. You simply need to remove SecuROM and run the game with a NO DVD exe. Dathoc, I used to have the same problem until showed me how to solve it and it actually does work.
