Norton and CD problems
«

I've have no problems running a secuROM infested version of sims until today, when I changed my virus software to norton. Now, my computer accepts the apartment life CD is in the drive, but sims 2 refuses to run as the CD isn't in the drive (it says). Could norton be the cause of this somehow, as I could previously run sims 2 apartment life without problems, and has anyone any advice. If this is related to secuROM, please don't spork me too much as I do try my best. It just so happens my best isn't always good enough.

Did you turn Norton off before trying to run the game? You should.
However, it's probably SuckuRom anyway.

Search on MATY for alternatives to Norton - there are other anti-virus programs out there that are not the memory pigs that Norton is, many of which are free.
Get rid of both Norton and SecuROM.

For reals. Norton is a resource hog. The Sims is a resource hog. They don't play nice together.

So you knew about teh evilz of SecuROM and decided to let it infest your system anyway? Well, surprise! It does exactly what everyone has been saying it does.
Get rid of both SecuROM
and
Norton and never let either of them near your computer again. I use the free version of AVG, and have had no problems running it alongside The Sims 2.
