If you are playing “The Sims” on your computer and you have Microsoft Windows Vista, first, check that your computer meets the requirements. The classic “The Sims” or “The Sims Deluxe Edition” supports Windows 98, Windows Millennium, and Windows XP. Windows 2000 and Windows NT are not supported.

It requires 233 MHz or faster Intel Pentium II or equivalent AMD Athlon processor, 64 MB RAM, Microsoft DirectX 7.0-compatible 16-bit high color video card with 2 MB video RAM, sound card, and 1.4 GB free space. Now, since you are using Windows Vista, try running the game in compatibility mode. Right-click “The Sims” and select “Properties”.

In the “Properties” window, go to “Compatibility” tab then check “Run this program in compatibility mode for”. Select “Microsoft Windows XP” or any of the supported operating systems from the dropdown list and click “OK”. Try running the game and see if it works. If this doesn’t work, try updating your video card driver then see if it works.

You can download an updated version of the driver from the video card manufacturer’s website.
