To fix the "Service Initialization Failed 0x039e8474" error in The Sims 3: Ambitions, try the following steps: First, ensure your game is fully updated to the latest version. Then, clear your game's cache by deleting the files in the "Caches" folder found in your Sims 3 Documents folder. If the issue persists, try running the game as an administrator or reinstalling the game to resolve any potential installation issues.
Vista has DX 10 when WIndows XP doesnt. While Vista was suppose to be the upgrade to XP, it had a lot of problems during the first launch and it took awhile to fix everything. Vista is suppose to run faster, and use less resources on your system. But Vista failed and Microsoft then released Windows 7 as the replacement to Vista.
If Vista has failed you might have to re-install it. You will lose all your info if you did not make backup copies. Try system restore first.

I had this same problem, check for a crack on the bottom of your CD if there is one you can take it to a store that will fill in the cracks. If there is no crack and you still have the problem you might want to bring it to the store that you bought it at.
