My readeon 7000 Video card can't push the sims game and I am hart broken!!

I'm having the same problems, it a shame after waiting so long and purchasing the game that I'm still not able to play it because my video card is not over 7200. Now who in the world should I contact when the manufacturer of my computer is telling me to contact the manufacturer of the game.

Got my copy of Sims2 today and was literally in tears as my system wouldn't play it. So frustrating after waiting all this time. Got some advice on upgrading the PC but decided it was easier to purchase a whole new PC. Now how's that for dedication? Can't wait to get the new PC and start playing. Kids are happy too as they get the old PC with all The Sims games on it!!

I was so disappointed when I got my game and couldnt play it due to a poor graphics card that I went out and bought a new one. It is excellent! Radeon 9000+...its awesome and was relatively inexpensive as far as graphics cards go!!

I too ran into that same problem...unfortunately.
I've had the game for 4 days running on the Radeon 7000, it's crashing...just when I get into a good 'moment' with my stories, the monitor will freeze up. Sometimes the entire computer shuts down.
In all fairness to MAXIS/EA, they did say months ago that the game would play with the ATI Radeon 7200 or VVIDIA GeForce2 or HIGHER...I remember reading that and thinking, oh, maybe my 7000 will work b/c I didn't want to make the investment into a new video card.
BUT, that is no longer the case. I have a fast enough computer with a video card that can't keep up!
My question to all of you SIM-ers out there that are able to run the game w/no problems, which card would buy? NVIDIA or ATI RADEON 7200 (or greater)?

I have radeon 9000 series, I just downloade the drivers from my cd and my game froze a couple of times, but I uploaded the updated drivers to it and i have no problems with the game, runs great and looks wonderful, very good game and very good graphics, i love it, I do suggest if you going to upgrade your video card, spend the bux and get the newest radeon out there, don't settle for less when you can get the best out of the newest radeon card, the water looks like water on the 9000 series the shadows are great, the card is great, i got the one with 128 ddr memory on it, so go buy the top of the line card, even if its the 9000 series one of the old ones still be the best deal to get.

I bought the NVIDIA GE Force 4000 video card and had it installed, it works perfect. Read the bottom of the box and make sure you have all the minimum requirements to play on your computer. I can't believe how much better it works and soooo much faster too. It was definetly worth the money.

I've just recently upgraded my old video card (not for The Sims 2, more for my Graphic Design work) and I don't need my old one. It's a GeForce2 MX 400 (64MB) and I *think* it should be able to run The SIms 2 ok. I don't know what you mean by 'over 7200', though. It's also AGP, not PCI - don't know if that's a problem for you. Check out full details at "http://www.nvidia.com/page/geforce2mx.html". If you want it, it's yours- free! It would just sit around, gathering dust otherwise...
If you do want it, drop me an email to gsquared@blueyonder.co.uk and I'll make it so.

(ps - no catches here... don't want anything in return... just think it's sad that you have the game but can't play it... so near yet so far!)

CAN ANYONE HELP ME ? THE GAME SAYS TO GET MORE FOOD YOU CAN ODER ON LINE OR CALL FOR DELIVERY. IT WON'T LET ME. THE OPTION FOR ORDERING GROCERIES IS HIGHLIGHTED IN NEON GREEN AND CAN'T CLICK ON IT. WHAT EVER IS IN BLACK YOU CAN CLICK ON ? CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHY I CAN'T ORDER GROCERIES. IS THERE SOMETHING THAT I'M NOT DOING RIGHT. OR IS THERE A SECRET TO THE GAME THAT I HAVEN'T YET DISCOVERED YET TO GET THE FOOD ORDERED. I'M TIRED OF HAVING TO GO ALL THE WAY TO THE STORE.
Life is too short. Live each one as if it were your last. Treat people the way you wanted to be treated. My favorite song is " Spirit in the Sky " Don't laugh. I want this to be played at my funeral. Maybe it will make people smile a little that day.

Hi Shakti,
Tried to reply to your email but it bounced back. Do you have (or can you make a hotmail account and email me from there) - people might not want to see our emails on this BBS. I've still got the GeForce2 if you want it...
Contact me.

So glad people are starting to arrive....hopefully us less unfortunates can hold each other over until we get the game! Unfortunately, I'm forced to reformat my computer today but better to have you people to keep me occupied than waiting for it to finish so I can play the game!
Woohoo~

No "woohooing" on the boards. This is a family joint.
Just kidding with you. With the whole new term for "playing" being "woohooing" and all that.
Not sure how this is going to turn out. I'm playing with the fonts, etc.
Edited: Hmm.....I'm apparently font challenged lol.

Hey All! New to the site, but I guess we all are! Love the site..REALLY LOVE the game. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MAXIS/EA!
|
|

|
|

|

Great new site, folks! Good job, all you up there at Maxis.
I've been playing random Sim games since...well...forever, basically (started with the original SimCity, then discovered two weird ones - SimEarth and SimAnt, where were just really odd - and later moved on to SimCity 2000 and beyond). The original The Sims was a great game, and though The Sims 2 probably will not be too much of a gigantic difference (besides the additions and the graphical changes), that is certainly not a bad thing - there was so little that could have been improved, before!
Yes...this game, and probably this site as well, will be receiving much of my free time from now on, for good or ill, and to the detriment of my existence in the real world (what is that, anyway?).

Hmmm, second try at posting :D Can't wait to figure out all the nooks and crannies - which will probably be tomorrow evening... it's getting terribly late here

BINKERS!!! I am so happy to see you!! Hey MsWick, Lisa,Rick,Kitty,Kane and any other "powers that may be" !!
The site looks great! And Lisa dont feel bad! I too am Format challenged!
I got the game installed with no problems, but am having trouble getting it to run as it appears I have some software for CD code breaking(?) Guess I will have to figure out what it is.
But despite that I am happy to finally have the game and am looking forward to updating my "mute" statis here and helping others(and receiving) where I can!
Take Care All & Thanks MAXIS

Press CTRL+ALT and Delete at the same time to see what you got running (then click on the processes Tab) if u got Windows, Hope this helps : ) PS can u put your system spec up so i can have a look ty.

Ummm..okay.I got my copy of The Sims 2 yesterday, and after installation i
clicked on the icon to open it up. The game opened up and went to the Ea Games,
like, logo thing. When the EA Games logo was going off the screen it froze, and
a box that said "The application has crashed. The application will now
terminate." popped up. I clicked "ok" on the box, and tryed opening it again but
the same problem occured, over and over again. I tryed just about everything to
fix it but it still keeps happening. I don't know what to DO! Do you have any
other adive or suggestions about how to fix this problem? Or do you know how to
fix this?
Thanks!

How do you type in cheats? I tried Ctrl+Alt+Shift+C and it doesn't seem to work.
|
|
|
|
|
 |  |
|
|
It's just ctrl shift c, you don't need the alt. 
|
|
|
|
|
 |  |
|
|
hit ctrl shift C ( this will bring your box up ) then type in kaching ( this gives you $1000 )

eeeep, I don't know what I'm doing wrong here, but however many windows I put in a room, it still seems to stay really really dark, if anybody knows something I should be doing but clearly am not, please, don't keep me in the dark!

I'm not sure if this will help, but try reading the part in your instruction book about lighting. I know that you can have it set so that it is dark to show you what your rooms will look like at night...you might have that on.

JNESKAR;
if you type in katchingkatching a screan will come down and then you can copy by highlighting "katching" and pushing the "ctrl" & "c" button. then to re-produce it is "ctrl" & "v". that is it, hope it helped. As for the other cheats? I don't think any of them work I think there are all new ones now. But take a boo at some of the fan sites with cheat on them and see for yourself.
* * * * * *
This Game rox! But I can't wait for the first extention pace since there are so many things missing that the last bunch of sim games/attachments had and if anybody knows the cheat of that anoying blur (nude patch in other words) I would love to hear form ya!

motherlode works the same way. When adding roofs how do you give it support to fit a building/lot the maximum size of the largest lot you can add to a map?
