    Error Message after loading The Sims 2

    I am in need of help. I am beginning to regret buying The Sims 2 after installing all the CD disks for the game I am getting an error message once I try to play the game. First let me start my saying I have and E-Machine that is running XP, the message is as follows:

    :mad: FAILURE TO FIND ANY DIRECT 9.0c COMPARTIBLE GRAPHIC ADAPTERS IN THE SYSTEM! PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A DIRECT 9.0c COMPATIBLE GRAPHIC ADAPTER AND HAVE INSTALLED THE LASTEST DRIVES PROVIDED BY MANUFACTURER.

    Well, I am no expert but I think you need a graphic adapter..
    Look on thesims2.com and email them. They are the guys who created it. They should know! :)
    I am no expert and sorry if I have wasted your time.

    What are your system specs?

    Go to: Start, run, type dxdiag

    At the bottom of that window there's a button called save all information, click that and save the file.

    Next attach that text file to your post.
