This is the first time I am here and I don't know if is the right spot, anyhow I have a problem with my Sims, my PC is a AMD Athlon 64 dual 2 core 4200+ with 1 G ram and a 7900GS Videocard, I thought that was enough but not so,
I am up to Pets and I also have the full DMA installed plus C_boy and a few small hacks, now what happens is when I run the Sims for no reason the game freezes and a minute later the screen goes black and the PC restarts
with a ERROR masage 0x0000000ea got stuck device driver Q293xxx forgot the last one, but to solve the problem I had to get the latest driver which I have or to turn the accelerator back, if I do this the sims won't play because there is no directx 9 so it's useless, what I like to ask is there anyone out there who had simular problems or has a sollution I like to hear

Have you installed the latest version of DirectX (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=0A9B6820-BFBB-4799-9908-D418CDEAC197&displaylang=en) & the latest video drivers for your video card?

irmgard - did you try updating with drivers from the nvidia website, or did you try from the Microsoft Windows Update?

I have the same configuration but 4G Ram. The game flies but if I put too much decor on my hoods, performances drops. I don't know what the hell so heavy are those trees and flying pigs! :(
