I have a new computer, and the game won't start on it.
I installed it, I got a pop up with a menu to press play, and once I do that, the pop up disappears and it won't start!
Yes, I've tried trouble shooting compatibility, running as an administrator, still nothing works!
I also tried downloading a "virtual xp", as suggested on many forums, it wouldn't work!!
If anyone has a solution, I'd love the help.

I'm sorry re sims 1. I hope you are able to get it to work.
@MsPrissy88 Do you get an error message or what happens ? Here's a discussion on this at MTS: http://modthesims.info/t/561235
Please do not send me PMs/post on my wall if you're looking for help. I can't attend to those. You can find me at AnswerHQ.

Yeah, @crinrict. The Sims 1 disk does indeed have that SafeDisc which will not let it install/run/whatever with Windows 10.
But, thanks for the link. I'll have a look.

Hope that helps you @MsPrissy88
The only problem @mcrudd is that Windows 10 will not *let* the disk even spin up to the point where I could see the "install The Sims". This is because back then, EA used SafeDisk to protect whatever, and Windows doesn't even recognize this.
I mean, I *thank you* you "showing" me how *you* got it to work on your system, but I have tried everything. And since it won't work (for me, on 10), I just have to wait until I can get my laptop fixed. At least I know it worked on my Vista laptop.

I also did what you said in the next step..... clicking on the icon. It still won't work - or, spin up.

I know you've been racking your brain trying to think of solutions. But there aren't any. At least for me. You've been a big help, sweetie. Really.
