Hello world
I just got the new Sims 3, I installed and uninstalled several times, but every time I get the same message came 'the Launcher of the sims 3 has stopped working ".
I checked the updates, defragmentation and tried again but no joy. In addition, the system requirements exceeds the requirements of the game.
I spoke to someone on the EA forum and they suggested to the launcher and simply load the game, so I tried this and now I get "the application failed to start because its configuration side by side is incorrect. check the log of events applications for more information. »In all honesty doesn't mean a lot to me, I tried to get help from EA, but they do not respond, I hope experts can help me, it would be much appreciated.
EMHello Emma,
Thank you for posting. As a gamer, I have an idea of what might happen. It seems that the configuration file for the game is not correct or may be corrupt. Unfortunately only EA support for the Sims 3 can really help you with this problem. I suggest that you stay in control of their forums or contact their support team.
Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

Hello
You did changes to the computer before the show?
Method 1: I suggest that you run the SFC scan and check if this solves the problem for you:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833
The sfc/scannow command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.
Method 2: Perform a disk check, follow the steps below:
1. open the computer by clicking the Start button, click computer.
2. click on the drive you want to check, and then click Properties.
3. click on the Tools tab and then, under check for errors, click Find now. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
To automatically repair problems with files and folders that detects the scanning, select automatically fix file system errors. Otherwise, the disk check will be a problem, but not to fix them.
To perform a thorough check, select search and attempt to recover bad sectors. This analysis tries to find and repair physical errors on the disk itself, and it may take much longer to complete.
To check for errors file and the physical errors, select both automatically fix errors in file system and search for and attempt recovery of bad sectors.
Method 3: Update of the .net Framework.
