Graphics problem
mrnapolean1:
yes i have the most recent driver installed for this piece of junk.
Tenshii~Akari:
Have you removed any sort of terrain/lighting replacement hack files from your game to see if that'll do the trick? (if any are in your game... there's a slight possibility if you've downloaded any lots from off the Sims 2 Exchange, stray hacks may have carried over into your downloads folder) And if possible, could you tell us what type of video card your machine has? :angel:
mrnapolean1:
i have no lightning hacks my computer has the Peice of Junk Intel 915 GM/GMS, 910 GML Chipset. My Computer is a Dell Inspiron 1300 notebook.
Tenshii~Akari:
Eh... I can see that part of the problem is that your video card is an "integrated" one... most on-board integrated graphics chips aren't able to support certain types of image effects that high-end ones would. Especially if the shared video memory is low. (... it's been suggested that any card that has 256MB minimum or more is in good standing. 128MB is also good, but not as smooth in gameplay.)
And seeing as Dell rarely ever does updates for older laptops/computers anymore, I can see where updating Dell-compatible drivers can be quite difficult now days. :? If you've already tried updating your DirectX also, there might not be too much else to help fix that issue through non-physical updates... :(

the thing is it used to work when i had just nightlife installed, now i have the rest of the sims collection excluding ikea home stuff and aparment life..so i dont think its the graphics card. i think it may be one of the expansions that i installed. i just want to get it working again.
