    Can you download anything, say Winzip? Browsing the Internet OK?

    Yes my daughter can down load but not from discs ? I think when you have to download the sims with the disc you need my computer but this wasent on the laptop when it got sent back to us, can you retrieve this back at all ?

    :huh:

    So, is this problem specific to Sims; i.e. you have no problems downloading Winzip?
