Hi, I bought sims 2 a while back, I copied the 4 discs onto another 4 discs incase the originals get damaged,
I put the disc in, Its successfully fully installed, i went to run it and it says: Insert the correct CD-Rom,
So i put disc 1 in, Didnt work so i applied a no CD patch, and it still says: Insert the correct CD-Rom,
Why is this?

I have installed and are trying to run it on the original disc,
Although i get this following problem: Please insert the correct DVD-ROM, select OK and restart application.
Why do i get this problem, Any help will be great

Try cleaning the disk with a slightly damp lint-free cloth.
