I just installed the sims 2 and tried to play it. However, when i click on the icon, there will be a message "Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapters in this system! Please make sure you have a DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapter and have installed the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer. The application will now terminate." So what should i do to rectify the problem?

Download this program called Sisoft Lite here. http://www.majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4664
Run this program and it will tell you what video adapter you are using. Then google the name of the video adapter and go to their site and using their search function, find the driver you need and download and install it.
 
If you have more questions then come back and we can help further.
 
Good Luck
