Hmm... that's odd. What graphics plugin are you using, and have you tried any others? I use Glide64 for games if I'm using an HD texture pack, but Jabo seems to work fine for others.

Also, which version are you using? V 2.1 fixed many issues and is alot faster than 1.6, which is more popular for some reason. Although I go back and forth between versions sometimes. Overall 2.1 works better with most games and is much faster, but I have to use 1.6 to get Conker's Bad Fur Day to run at full speed for some reason that I'll never understand. (Really, I don't get it. It used to work perfectly on 2.1 for me, then I did nothing, and just suddenly one day when I booted it it would only run at 45 fps no matter what I did. It was really quite baffling. So I just use 1.6 for that particular game to save myself the headache.)

I use V 2.1 with the default plugin. I also have a few graphical issues with the Sims 2, so I think it's just some compatibility issue with whatever graphics card I've got.
