I'm having the same problem too. I used to play Sims 2 on my computer, but my computer got cluttered and wouldn't work for quite a while and I ended up getting a laptop and not playing Sims 2 for a long time. After a year, I went back to my computer and spent hours deleting unwanted programs from my computer and now it works just fine. I ended up uninstalling Sims 2 and something else that was crucial to Sims 2. I went back to install Sims 2 and it installed just fine. When I tried to run the program, it showed the DirectX 9.0c needed to be installed. So, I went online and installed it dozens of times and it still won't work. I know my computer is capable of playing this game, seeing as how I used to play it all the time on. I just need to know what's going wrong.
I figured out this problem. I have a different graphics card so I don't have an exact website you need to go to. But it is a driver problem. To fix the problem, I went to the Nvidia website and typed in Sim 2 into the site search. It brought me to a page where it gave me a link to download drivers to fix the problem. Your graphics card website should have a set of drivers that fix this problem. I have been playing Sims 2 all afternoon. No error message....no crashes.
is a radeon 7500 series directx 9.0c compatiable
Go to your graphics card website where you get the drivers for it. Type in Sims 2 into the site search box. The site should take you to a page where you can get the driver to fix the problem. I have a Nvidia graphics card and that is what I did to get Sims 2 working on my computer.
