hello!
i'm sorry im new here and I saw cfitzarl post regarding the sims 2, about the error message.
I just bought a HP Pavilion dm 3 Notebook PC, definitely not a gaming computer but that hasn't stopped me before. anyways, I was playing the sims 3 on it the other day which has system requirements far beyond what my computer can handle and it worked great but I didn't enjoy part 3 in the series as much as the sim 2 so I got that but then the error message came up as I tried to start it. that's the whole backgrounds story lol.
my system requirements is:
AMD Athlon (tm) Neo X2 dual core Processor L335 (2 CPUs) ~1.6 GHz
4 GB RAM
DirectX 11
my graphics card is:
ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics
2 GB
and the message that pops every time I try to start the game is:
"Failed to enumerate any DirectX 9 compatible graphics adapters in this system!
Make sure you have directX 9 compatible graphics adapter and have installed the latest manufacturer provider driver.
The application will now terminate..."
I've done the things cfitzarl wrote about in the forum, updated basically everything I could but nothing has worked. please help!
