i am having the exact same problem as a majority of u... after installing teh sims2 and directx 9.0c (which completed in 1sec), i tried to run it and it says "Unable to initalise DIrect3d. Please ensure that DIrectx9.0c is installed"... so i tried to download the dx file and reinstall but i got the same problem... i then uninstalled all my ATI original drivers and installed Omega's ATI drivers... upon rebooting, i still have d problem... has anyone found a solution yet? when i check the dxdiag, it says that DirectX 9.0b is installed altho ive tried reinstalling dx9.0c a few times. My friend tried the same CD and it worked well, but he is using SP1... is it an SP2 problem? btw, here are my specs
Win XP Pro SP2
AMD Athlon 64 3000+
GeCube Radeon 9600SE 128MB
768MB RAM
80Gig HDD
