I haven't got any hacks, apart from one which I think was working before hand, the "default formalwear for weddings" hack, but whenever I install a custom community lot package, it won't load, and I think it stuffs up houses too. I've already reinstalled it, but it's still not working. Maybe I have too many customs?

Here's a couple of computer details:
Laptop
1.8GHz Intel celeron m processor
128MB gfx card
512mb ram

I really hope it can be fixed, cause my desktop monitor blew up and all, so I can't use it on the desktop. Maybe the laptop can't handle it?

I don't think your comp is really the problem. The community lot should still be able to load, even if the quality isn't the best. Do you have Uni? It's most likely a career that snuck in your game. A lot of really gorgeous lots I've found, even on MTS2, came w/ careers attached, although I didn't know it at the time. I suggest D/Ling Sims2Pack Clean Installer, then running it. Sort them by type, look for "Careers", and I have a feeling you'll find the culprit.

yeah, i have uni. i just followed your advice and found an education career that snuck in! weird. thanks though! i hope it works now. it should... i think.

.ive found a few hacks from here that were in lots and stuff. its no big deal, ive only gotten career hacks nothing that is really really bad though. ive ben able to get rid of all the hacks liek that from here. except last time i got something from tsr i think (only place i downloaded from last time ) and it just wouldnt work at all.. i just got rid of uni until a permenant solution for the hack problem can be found.
