When I installed the Sims 2, everything was fine, then I tried starting it, there was the loading screen, and when the bar is full, 2 pop ups appear, 1 says: Microsoft Windows detected and recovered from a device failure. Please save your work and rebot to restore full functionality. second one: The graphic adapter in this system experienced an internal error. Please contact your grahpics adapter manufactuere for technical support. The application will now terminate.
And then it shuts down, and the desktop, icons and everything turns big. I have to restart to make it right.
It's not a new game, I've played it on my old computer, I've tried installing it twice on this one, it's the same thing both times.
Why does it not work? should I download anything?

Hi, why not try downloading the latest driver for your graphics card & then seeing if that solves the problem?
Otherwise, try here for more advice:
