I now have 4 party guests
Motoki:
Andygal, you should be able to just get the newest drivers for it on ATI.com. The drivers are sort of a one size fits all for all Radeon cards, not just the 9600, so you would go to Customer Care > Choose a Driver, then pick which operating system you are using and then chose Radeon for the product type, and finally Catalyst driver (you only need the other stuff if you have an All in Wonder card with a TV Tuner built in).

Thanks Motoki. I once investigated new drivers for my Radeon card and was scared off by the ATI site. I followed your directions, then theirs, and hopefully I can now invite more than 3 guests in a house of 4!
Motoki:
It's certainly a good idea to update your drivers, but I doubt it will allow more party guests. For me it didn't. I had to use the cheat to get it back to 8.
In the directory My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Config make a plain text file named userStartup.cheat and add the following line then save:
intProp maxNumOfVisitingSims 8
Or you can change 8 to whatever number you want, but it seems in my game to also effect how many townies end up on a community lot so you don't want to make it too high.
If the Config directory isn't there then create it and if the userStartup.cheat file is already there then just add that line to it.
Muisie:
Thanks, Motoki. I think I'll do that. I'm so thoroughly sick of trying to meet townies on community lot, only to have them leave after 2 seconds because another townie showed up.
Edited to add: Hey, it worked great! Made a zillion townie friends this weekend ;D

Thanks also from me Motoki. You were right - I still couldn't invite more guests. I will have to use the intProp cheat, I guess. At least until I upgrade my puter parts.
