hi, probably i'm having this directx prob a bit too late.. i am a mac user but since the sims 2 for mac is not released until next year, i bought TS2 for windows. and i have the same problem. I'm using Microsoft Windows XP Pro SP2 (which i read that this is the main problem), Pentium 4 CPU 2.6 Ghz with 256 MB of RAM. Intel 82865G Graphics Controller and supposedly i fulfilled all the requirements to install the sims 2.. I tried all the solutions i've found in the forums. I've reinstalled the sims 5 times, reinstall directx 9oc or whatever like 6 times (and i've copied it to the system32 folder as well).. I tried the solutions some gave out in the forums and the solution from EA games someone posted a while ago. but still.. nothing seems to work. Help? And i also wanted to express my irritation for XP and DirectX.. After this problem, I don't think i would ever regret my decision to convert to macs. Everything just works much EASIER there. My PC's processor is much stronger than my mac, but it seems that a much weaker mac can handle things MUCH better than the so-called user-friendly Windows.
