It works, and it actually runs very well. Make sure you're running the game in compatibility mode. (Right click on the shortcut to launch The Sims>Click the Compatibilit Tab>Click Run in compatiblity mode and choose Windows XP (Service Pack 2)>Click Run this program as an administrator). That should work, if not, either send me a message or post back.

It should work, and from what others are saying, it does.
Be sure that you are running in compatibility mode. Also, it wouldn't hurt to run it as an administrator.
