It looks like you necessitate bringing up to date your DirectX 9 to the most recent version. Also, might you misplace your graphics card as it might not even have DirectX 9 on it.

To me it sounds like W7 is not detecting his video card properly. The 9800GT is additional than proficient of running Sims 2 without breaking a sweat.
