Okay so I bought the SIMS 2 today and was all phyched to play it, and it doesn't work.
When I try to load the game it gives me a message that says:
"Failed to find any DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapters in this system! Please make sure you have a DirectX 9.0c compatible graphics adapter and have installed the latest drivers provided by the manufacturer. The application will now terminate."
So I googled the DirectX 9.0c and downloaded it TWICE. I installed it and both times it said that it was all ready to use.
But the game still won't work. I've heard that it might be a problem with my graphics card, so here's the information that I have on that: [i think this is about the Graphic's card...]
Name: intel® 82810E graphics controller
Manufacture: Intel Corporation
Chip Type: Intel ® 82810
DAC type: Internal
Aprox. Total memory: 32.0 MB
At the bottom everythign is enabled. [all three options]
To the right where it says the driver information, it is the following:
Main Driver: i81xdnt5.dll
Version: 6.13.0001.3198 (english)
Date: 8/3/2004
PLEASE help! Any help is appreciated!
