try this:
Go to the start menu,
search for HP Health Check,
right click and go to properties,
click the short cut tab,
and then go down to the short cut window.
The short cut for this program is also ctrl+shift+c,
so just change it and your cheats window should work fine.
good luck! | 2 Pleased, on Jan 23, 2009 2:38:24 am GMTI just wanted to thank you for this piece of advice. My friend just installed the Sims 2 and has Windows Vista, and I couldn't figure out why the cheat bar wouldn't come up (I run XP and, of course, have had no problems). In searching for the answer as many people have had this problem, the only answer that many people could give was 'you have to hold down ctrl+shift+c at the same time'. As though we hadn't already tried that. Your advice solved the problem, so thank you for paying attention to the question and being a great help! | 62 xXEliseXx, on May 18, 2009 12:26:00 pm BSTI am on a mac and i have no problems with my Sims 2 and I never have. I can open the cheat box with control shift C. I can do all the cheats including "motherlode" and "kaching" and "boolprop testingcheatsenabled true or false" and "max motives". They all work fine with my game and I have sims2, seasons, family fun stuff, and open for buisness. |

Now I can play. Wooh! Hooh! |
