I keep getting the DirectX 9.0C error. There was a time a few months ago when it worked but then I added another expansion pack and since then it won't load. I've tried following the main post about how to fix this but I must have messed up somewhere, and can't seem to get it to work. Can someone help me please? Thanks in advance!

You don't mention whether you are using Ultimate Collection or the DVDs/CDs.

You need to download this Graphic Rules - Graphic Rules - Intel

and Install it in either -

In the Program folders:

\Program Files (x86)\EA\The Sims 2 - <your most current expansion pack>\TSData\Res\Config\
\Program Files (x86)\EA\The Sims 2 - <your most current expansion pack>\TSData\Res\CSConfig\
MUST BE INSTALLED IN BOTH FOLDERS

If you have a deluxe or collection expansion, you will need to install it in that one as well.

If you have Ultimate Collection:

\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSData\Res\Config\
\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Fun with Pets\SP9\TSData\Res\CsConfig\
MUST BE INSTALLED IN BOTH FOLDERS
