I am sorry about your game, but that is just hilarious.
Have you tried loading up your game without the download folder (yeah, I know your sims will be butt-ugly but maybe they will actually have a face...)
I finally stopped laughing long enough to post. I also would look in the error log and easy Info at lest easy info can pinpoint you to the spes the game is currently reading ie get new drivers etc for the graphics card.

Thanks for the suggestions folks. And glad you liked the story. I thought the mildly humorous approach would work better than using the torrent of expletives I originally planned.
The weird thing though is the game had been playing relatively ok (as far as TS2 goes ie a minimum of weirdo graphics thing) until I patched it. I'll definitely ask around the forums you mentioned but I cant work out why updating or rolling back drivers would affect the craziness with the control panel. ??? Ive had all kinds of other freaky stuff happen to my game since patching it (blank thought bubbles, blank message boxes, can't ask anyone what they do for a living etc etc....) And there would definitely appear to be some issues with body shop.
Bangelnuts, what's easy info? And where would a computer retard like myself stumble across such a thing as an error log? :-[
Brynne:
You can find error logs in your my documents/ea games/the sims 2/logs folder
EZ info will be in your program list. EA Games and the Nightlife. You'll see EZ info listed first, I think. Click on it and it will do it's thing.

One more thing...have you tried dxdiag?

May I refer you to my earlier 'retarded' comment ;D.
