I´m trying to install relatively older games such as Sims, Potter etc, But
apparently the " installshield" fails to initialize - thats the message I get
anyway.
My 13 yr old daugther is "not amused" - and you should know how ugly that
can get!

Are the programs obsolete or do I have a problem with XP (Home Edition)????

HEEEEELP!
