The Sims 2 "Quit Unexpectedly"

I had the Sims 2 and the Sims 2 Nightlife installed on my computer once before, and it worked fine. I accidentally deleted it, and I cant get it to reinstall! I have tried many times, even made a new user account and tried it. I have plenty of hard drive space, and have installed so many patches I don't even know how many! The game opens, and as soon as you click on a neighborhood, and try to play it says the game quit unexpectedly and you can relaunch, send report, etc. Is there a program that blocks full installation of the game or gameplay? Im so frustrated! I know It should be able to work!Please help!

Did you use the built in uninstaller or just delete it? If you didn't use the uninstaller I would do that. If not, sounds like a game issue, not an OS issue. I would contact EA at TheSims2.com - Help - Home

there is no uninstaller for this game
