Directx 9.0c (again)
albmont:
After about half an year without The Sims 2 because Windows XP crashed,
I could reinstall Windows and try to play The Sims 2. I got this error:
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.
Is there any way to bypass this error, or I must try to figure out how do
to whatever this message is trying to tell me to do?
Last time I tried to fix this error was probably what caused Windows XP
to crash.
PS: I just thought it would be meaningless to start a new thread with the same subject as a previous thread.

As I said in the other thread, it was, first, not your thread to hijack and, two, it had been almost two years old since it had been posted in.
In any case, did you read the thread and do what was suggested there? Please do so. We can't help without knowing more about your computer.
albmont:
I read the the other thread, I ran dxdiag, and it just told me I have DirectX 9.0c, but I also don't have it.
Going through the windows help is pointless, because it all ends with the same non-suggestion
And there's no way to figure out what is the stuff I have to download to solve the problem.
Sorry for the typos (using a Netbook to post while Windows takes the other computer)
FWIW, here is the non-information dxdiag gives (it's in Portuguese, I'm mistranslating):
Device:
Built by: n/a
Processor type: n/a
Type of digital/analogical converter: n/a
Total approx of memory: n/a
Current exhibition mode: 800 x 600 (32 bit) (1 Hz)
etc

Oh, and typos can be eliminated by actually reading through what you've written before posting it. Might take a few extra seconds, but you don't have to excuse yourself all the time, and it's a lot less annoying for whoever is reading your post.

Well, you'll note in the other thread I asked the OP to list their computer specs (which I asked for when I requested more info about your computer in my last reply). N/A doesn't help us at all, because none of us can see your computer. Please tell us your processor speed, RAM, graphic card, etc.
Without knowing anything, all I can suggest is updating drivers.
