Answer #1

Hello Blythe94 :D

Please make sure you have installed the patches EA has offered to fix certain Vista compatibility issues. It can be found here: http://thesims2.ea.com/update/index.php If the problems persist, check that your computer complies with the minimum requirements, especially the video requirements:

“If you have a T&L capable video card with at least 32 MB of video RAM then you need at least:

600 MHz P3 processor or better

256 MB RAM if Windows XP, Windows ME, Windows 98 or Windows 2000

At least 3.5 GB of hard drive space

If you have a non-T&L capable video card (such as Intel Extreme Graphics or Radeon 7xxx Series) then you need at least:

2.0 GHz processor or better

256 MB RAM if Windows XP, Windows ME, Windows 98, or Windows 2000

At least 3.5 GB of hard drive space

Supported video cards (and the more video memory the better):

ATI RadeonTM series (7000 or better)

7000, 7200, 7500 (requires 2.0 GHz processor)

8500, All-In-Wonder 8500

9000, 9200, 9500, 9600, 9700, 9800

Nvidia® QuadroTM series

Quadro, Quadro2, Quadro4

Nvidia® Geforce series (GeForce2 and better)

GeForce2

GeForce3, 3 Ti

GeForce4, 4Ti, MX 420, 440

GeForce FX 5200, 5600, 5700, 5800, 5900, 5950

GeForce 6800

Intel® Extreme Graphics (requires 2.0 GHz processor)

82845, 82865”

To check what your computer has you can either type “System” or “Dxdiag” in your vista search bar and go to the corresponding links :D.

Hope I could help ^_^ Dego.

Answer #2

it could be, could be that your computer only plays cd-roms or dvd-roms, it might not be.

check the sims case and see what type the ones that don’t work are.

Read your computer instructions and see if it plays both.

Hope I helped.
