This may sound stupid, but I don't know how to set my paths in Extra-Preferences-System Folders for the Savegame folder to get photostudio to work. I know you need it to go directly to the My Documents folder rather than C:\Documents & Settings\(Name)\My Documents\EA Games\Sims 2, but I don't have a My Documents folder that goes directly from the main C: drive. I tried to create a My Documents folder inside the C drive and place the EA Games folder inside it but this doesn't seem to have the same effect as photostudio is still greyed out. Is there anything similar that would work, or are there any other ways to get my documents folder to come straight from the drive?

 

Sorry if this sounds silly.

I had mine working off a different drive for a while, and I think got it to work by browsing to the folder rather than typing the path. It's been a while since I've had it set up like that, though.

Okay, I tried to browse to the folder, unfortunately that isn't working either. Nothing shows up:

 

 

 

Selecting 'Make a new folder' doesn't do anything.
