u probably need to uninstall ur extensions(expansion) and after you reinstall EACH extension, open the game like u r going to play. u don't have to play, but i have installed, uninstalled, re-installed all my sims games MANY times and if i do not open each expansion pack, i can't play them. like pets and seasons take the longest and at 1 time they said to do them in order, but i found u don't have to, as long as you put the most current, i.e., seasons, in ur disc drive to play. u must have the most recent expansion pack to play. like i have all the expansions (except bon voyage) and i have to put seasons in to play. pets doesnot work any more if i want to play the seasons version.
i hope this helped

I am brand new here and could use a little help. I just went out and
bought the Sims 2 Deluxe package, installed it and all went well. Now
I have managed to DL a couple of the extensions and they also seem to
have installed well, but, I can't tell if they are working as the
same screen comes up when I click on the Sims2 icon on my desktop as
came up when I first installed the deluxe pkg. I have no idea what I
am doing as I purchased this for my grand children as a surprise and
installed on my other puter. I am trying to figure it out just enough
so that I will know it is working correctly. I have no doubt they
will know right away as they have some of the games already. Is there
a patch that is used or something I need to do, or just how do I find
out what extensions are working within the Sims 2. Thanks a bunch.
