yes its the same as the specs on the site. and yes its vista, i have 6 gbs of ram, that should be enough to run vista, all drivers are up to date and nothing running in the background

Strictly a stab-in-the-dark guess, but you might check as to whether you have the newest version of DirectX and if not, install the newest version.

yes i have direct x 9, and 10. my screen is 20 inch so i have a 1600x700 or something screen res and i cant have that res in the sims 2 game window, could that be causing the blurry squished/stretchedness? how can i get the sims 2 to have the 20 inch screen res? i gotta have it at that res a normal res looks weird on a larger screen.

Try this (only needs to be done once):

Right-click on the icon you click on to launch the game.

Then left-click Properties from the menu.

There will be an entry box with the address the shortcut icon points to.

Add this to the very end of what is already there:

 -rwidthxheight

Change width and height to the actual numbers of your screen resolution.

The end of the line will then look like this example (only use your actual numbers, of course):

.exe" -r1600x1200

Don't forget the space after the existing closing quote mark.

Click OK and try launching the game.
