Look at the box- does it say "CD-ROM" or "DVD-ROM" in the black box in the corner?

Open "My Computer," then look at your different CD drives. Are they labeled RW? DVD?

If the Sims 2 Double Deluxe disc you're using is a DVD-ROM and you don't have/aren't putting it in the DVD-ROM drive, then your computer won't be able to read it.

It may be something else, but try this. Might be it.

Good luck!


EDIT: Eek! Didn't mean to rate my own answer. Sorry.

Firstly, check and see if you have a graphics card or an integrated graphics chip. If you put the disc in the drive do you get a message telling you to insert the proper disk? Secondly, if you have a card that meets the standards, this is a job for www.reclaimyourgame.com. Since Spore's release EA has been dogged with problems and lawsuits in relation to SecuRom. The problem you're describing could be SecuRom. Thirdly, I know this has been mentioned above, but you have to make sure you have a CD/DVD Rom, not just a CD Rom. The game won't run on a CD rom, even if it allows you to install it. It may install but won't play unless you have a DVD Rom.
