Video Card

[Kilala]

Hi peeps,

I have an Acer laptop which I was assured Sims 2 would be happy on. However, this does not ring true...

How do I find out what video card my laptop has, and if necessary, how do I upgrade it?

I thank you all.

hi, if you right click on you'r desktop go to properties then select the settings tab at the top that should tell you what card you've got. but unfortunately you can't change the video cards on most laptops.

hope this helped

As Casztor said, it isn't possible to change your video card on most laptops.

Well thank you for your help, I shall investigate further.

I have a feeling it is a problem with the game, actually. I am getting the same error messages on a Dell PC.

Grrr

Have you checked the Sims website for patches/upgrades?

Have discovered that Disk 1 has a rough scratch round the entire edge of it. Now i need to borrow someone elses Disk 1 so that I can install in and use my disks 2-4!

*Sigh*
