hello friends. i am here out of desperation. and maybe a tiny flicker of hope. my old ssd had a SMART failure (which i didn't even know was a thing). i bought a new ssd and installed it myself (a miraculous event - i don't mess with innards) and everything has been great. except my favourite pasttime, playing The Sims is no longer possible. I don't understand why the game won't work. It crashes every time? It's not on an external/cloud drive. There is no custom content. I keep uninstalling/reinstalling/repairing/refreshing to no avail. I tried asking the official Sims/EA people but that was last week and no one will talk to me!? I'm hoping someone can help me understand and resolve the compliance...compatability....(?) errors I grabbed from the official thing from /run.

Hello everyone — I’m David Armaan from New Jersey.

I’m a longtime Windows user, entrepreneur, publisher, and founder of a global wellness organization focused on healthy aging, longevity, technology, and human potential.

Much of my current work explores the intersection of AI, wellness, digital publishing, and emerging longevity science. I find particular inspiration in the work and ideas of Dr. David Sinclair, Dr. Peter Attia, and Dr. Aubrey de Grey, especially their efforts to rethink how we approach aging, prevention, and longer, healthier lives.

I joined WindowsForum to learn from experienced users, solve the occasional stubborn PC problem, and exchange ideas with people who enjoy technology as much as I do.

Looking forward to being part of the community.
