No, it's something that you do that should stay and show up in your config-log.txt if it has applied and worked.
It can come off though if you have had a hard crash or set compatibility mode and maybe from other things too, so it pays to check the log perodicly or anytime you think it may have come off.
Documents> EA GAMES> The Sims 2 > Logs> config-log.txt
Open that up and check that it says
Memory: 4096MB
Free memory: 4096MB
You do need enough RAM for your computer to be able to apply this of course. A notebook with 2RAM isn't going to give you 4 for your game.
Then lower down you want to see the name of your graphic card and that it's found in the data base.
