Ok, Got Sims 2 for my birthday. Couldn't wait to get home from work and istall it, little did I know, I'd be on the computer for hours trying to figure this crap out.
Ok, everything installed fine. When I try to start the program to play I get this message... Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c graphic adapters in this system! Please make suer you ahve DirectX 9.0c compatible graphic adapters and have installed the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer.
Alright, so check my DirectX diagnostic tool, display page. I have Directx 9.0c installed,
Here are some specs on the display page...
Device
Name: SiS 650_651_740
Manufacturer: SiS
Chip Type: SiS 651 Rev 00
DAC Type: Internal
Approx. Total Memory: 32.02 MB

Ok now at the bottom in the notes area it does say Hardware accelerated Direct3D 9+ is not available because the display driver does not support it.
Can someone point me in the direction of the new display driver I have to get? Dying to play the game here
