got a weird problem. my daughter loves the sims so i installed it for her. i can run it on my user profile but not hers; on the same pc!! i've tried running it as administrator, in XP mode. i don't get it. it says that there is no disc in the drive (when there is). i get the same error when i mount the image in power iso. it worked on XP SP3 and it works on my profile but not hers (and yes, i've made her an administrator and that has failed).

anyone got any ideas coz i'm stumped?!

Well is there a problem with her using your account ?

that would be the simple fix in my eyes is to let her use your account while is she is playing and when she wants to get off she logs off
