I'd also check you have the most up to date drivers, although that might not do anything.

I don't believe SIms 2 was "spec intensive", even when released. Sims3 was, but Sims 2 is quite old and wasn't that demanding at the time of release to be fair.

If your computer is old (say 5 years+ or so) I would suggest that the computer *may* not be good enough.

The more likely issue is incorrect installation, or even an incompatible Windows version. Can't really help without more info though.

I am not too good at stuff like this but all i would assume is that the spec on your PC (maybe graphics card) is not up too scratch. Check the Minimum System Requirements on the Game and then that of your PC.

I would suggest posting them details on here to get the best help.

Hope someone can aid you in solving the problem and welcome to the forum!
