So, I was playing and suddenly the game blacks out and comes back up...I go to my desktop to find my driver (a something something something) failed and was fixed...

I am wondering if this is a really bad thing or maybe just something caused by The Sims 3 as it hasn't happened before this.
Any way you can get a screencap of it for us?
It has only happened once and it went away.
Then I take it you don't remember what the whole message said?
It may have been a temporary glitch in your system. Sometimes my display driver goes all weird for no reason, but only like once or twice. I wouldn't worry too much about it unless if it happens again. THEN you should def. take a screenie and fix it.
Maybe you need to update her graphics card driver??? 
Right click on "my computer"
go to "device manager"
click on the tabs till you fine "update driver" or "driver updates"
if there is one, then it will ask you if you want to search online or whatever. You'll figure it out. Hope it helps! Smile
