I am having problems with sims 2, I have downloaded it and I got a pop up that said something about directx 9.0c but I fixed that and now my computer freezes up after about 5 minutes of playing the game. Can some one help please????

Since you've updated to DX9.0c, I would recommend that you also update the following device drivers for your system:

Chipset/INF driver package, I usually go to the chipset OEM like Intel/Via/SiS etc....

VGA/Graphics driver package, again go to the GPU/VGA chipset OEM like ATi/nVidia....

I would also recommend finding out what Audio chipset you're using, wether it be onboard or a separate sound card and getting the very latest driver package for that, as I said above, I go to the Audio chipset OEM like Realtek/Cmedia/Analog Devices/Creative Labs(Soundblaster) etc...

Basically find the latest driver packages for your system and download these then install them one at a time and reboot after each one is installed for proper operation of your machine smile
