Where do I find a free copy of the Instruction Manual for the Sims 2 Pets for Wii ??? thank you!!!

All expansion packs require the main game. You can not install without.

Please just type this link to your browser:
http://the-sims-2.en.malavida.com/
that is the site where you can download sims 2 and you have the walkthrough on how to install it to you PC.
I hope this will help you.
Thanks.

After installing Double Deluxe install the expansions you have in this order...
The Sims 2" Expansion Pack Order

• "The Sims 2 University"
• "The Sims 2 Holiday Party Pack" (A Stuff Pack)
• "The Sims 2 Open for Business"
• "The Sims 2 Family Fun" (A Stuff Pack)

your problem may be a graphics card issue. Did it work with the expansion packs or start problems when you installed the expansions?

maybe this link will be helpful if the above does not work.
