For me, at least, uninstalling and reinstalling are necessary if  less pleasing parts of playing Sims games; both Sims 1 and 2.

This may be because I play with a LOT of downloads, maybe because I like to try new things and experiment from time to time with different hacks.

It can be made less unpleasant.

Also Graphical issues may necessitate a reinstall. For me, if I change my graphics card while Sims 2 is installed and/or update the drivers with my AntiVirus software turned on, the game simply does not recognise the new card/drivers and my game will crash or refuse to load. It seems this has been a known issue for some time for many Simmers, but it is the first time it's come to my attention.

So - get ready to reinstall! (Don't forget to backup your downloads and user files - from My Documents - first!)
