The Sims 2 takes up 2,792 MB on my computer, and now I can't download anything because my computer's too full

Question

Is this normal for a computer game?? I'm looking at other things I have installed and most of them are like 0.9 MB or 26 MB or something. Do you think I could have installed the Sims wrong? What's going on?

Thank you so much! My computer's having thinking issues.

Answer 1

Yes Sims 2 can take up that much space, especially with the animations, movie clips that is there.  Clean up your hard disk by running the cleanup tool:

Click Start, and then click Run. In the Open box, type cleanmgr, and then click OK.

OR

Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click Disk Cleanup.

Even better would be to get another Hard Disk they only cost $150 for something like 300Gigs

Answer 2

well you my dear friend, has set the world record for the tiniest hard drive still in use today. =)

the sims 2comes in 4 cds and each cd holds 700 megs, so thats 2800megs of teh sims
