    Sims 2 Installation Help (Directx 9.0c problem)

    Ok, I'm burnin right now, The uninstall and reinstall of Catalyst old drivers didnt help. Nor did the reinstalling of dx 9c. As for you Candyoyo, what it means is that your comp needs a new graphics card. Now you didnt say what graphics card you have so i cant say for certain if you need an upgrade. But check with the Sims 2 website to see if your Graphics card is supported. As in my case ATI RAEDON 9600 pro is supported but i still get that error. So if your's isnt supported, dude you need to spend some greens. As usual still looking for a fix to this shitty problem. So if anyone else has had luck plz post. $@mmY

    Sims 2 Installation Help (Directx 9.0c problem)

    yeah definitely becoming an issue I've had this problem since i first installed Sims 2 on my comp. While not a comp novice, i've not been able to solve it. my sys reqs meet Sims 2 sys reqs >Athkin XP 2600+ >ATI RAEDON 9600 pro with 256 MB DDR >80 gigs of HDD given that 9600 pro is definitely dx 9 compatible the error message just pissed me off couple of things about the dx 9c install though. what i figured is that dx 9c wont reinstall if you have it installed already. So its not dx problem. Seems to me that the problem lies with the catalyst 4.9 drivers. I'm gonna uninstall them and install 4.8 later tonight to see if it works. in the mean time if anyone got jupdated news or fixes plz post $@mmY PS what the hell are the MAXIS guys upto?...they havent got any updates or patches up on their site. Not even any news on thhis issue!!! Are they retarded or just dont care enough!!

    The Sims 2

    Yeah, This definitely seems to be becoming an issue. I've been having the same trouble, but while not a comp novice, i've not been able to solve it. My system reqs meet Sims 2 reqs >Athlon Xp 2600+ >ATU RAEDON 9600 pro 256 mb ddr >80 gigs hdd given that raedon 9600 pro is definitely a dx 9c compatible card, the error message simply pissed me off. Well couple of things bout the DX 9c installation prgram, what i figured out is that the dx 9c installer wont reinstall if you already have 9c installed on your machine. coz i ran dxdiag and i have dx 9c installed. seems to me that the catalyst 4.9 drivers are the problem...so later tonight i'm gonna uninstall 4.9 and install 4.8 to see if Sims 2 runs. Sucks that i cant play Sims 2, but i've been searching all over and havent found an answer yet. The guys at EA games have no updates or patches (not even news on this issue), makes you wonder what they are upto...anywayz if someone has more news and possible fixes to this problem plz post. $@mmY
