just for a little more info about the problem, when i try to launch sims 2 it says failed to initialise direct 3d, please make sure direct x9.0c has been installed on this system.

What version of DirectX does Windows say you have now?
 
Start/run then type in box dxdiag
 
Sometimes direct3d will not run right if you are using something to force monitor refresh rates.
 
As far as SP2 you can download it from here.
