was up everyone ok i uninstalled the game it is running fine then i tried to install night life and i guess a file got deleted is anyone else having the problem this is what pops up E:/Autorun/autorun.bmp


then A hardware I/O error was reported while accessing:E:/autorun/:autorun.BMP

PLEASE HELP

do you have Alcohol or Deamon tools installed on your system?
or another Virual drive program?
If so you need to change some settings in those programs.
There is informatiopn on how to change the settings in the help area at the official site.

If not it may be your Disk drive is it reading other disks ok?
Do you have more than one drive like a burner drive on there try using the other drawer if so

Other than that the only reason I know that would make that come up is if you are trying to run a illegal copy and for that Sorry I can not help you

Maybe it's because you installed the games in the wrong order. That can sometimes cause problems. Try re-installing them in the order they were released.
In case you don't know, the order the base game and the eps were released is this:
Base Game
University
Nightlife
Open For Business
Pets
Seasons
Bon Voyage

If that doesn't help then I don't know what to do. But before you re-install, then i suggest that you de-fragment your computer. Hope I helped.
