While this is getting a bit off topic for the VSnet setup group...

Since it asked you to retry so many times - possibly the disk is a good
copy, or scratched or whatever..? Is it possible for you to try it on
another machine? Or alternatively... You could try simply dragging all of
the files from that particlar disc to a temporary directory on your HD -
just to see if they will copy without any errors.

If it turns out the disk is bad, you can probably get another from whoever
publishes The Sims.

Hope that helps..
