Can my game be better if I upgrade my machine?

Make sure the new video card is not overpowered for your machine. No point in buying biggest and best if your hard drives or CPU then become the bottleneck. Also make sure your power supply can hack it and make sure cooling is up to the job.

I'll check the video card choice with a friend who runs a computer shop, but knows nothing of Sims. Trif of Crazy Town is also suggesting an OS upgrade given I run XP 'la ordinaire. Any comments?

Yes, it will probably run better under Vista than XP. And even better under 7.

Why even raise the issue of Vista?  Wasn't 7 released because Vista made people want to hurt themselves and others?

Vista is a RAM hog, so it probably wouldn't run better than XP unless you have a lot of RAM to play with.
