Sorry =\
Trust me, it hasn't been easy sailing with mine either... just had to update my graphics card online a couple days ago because the game randomly started crashing again. And the patches HATE me, they mess everything up. I have a lot of problems with it too.
I just purchased all the Sims EPs and SPs aside from the basegame and Ambitions, which I already have, on Amazon.
I, uh, previously might have had cracked versions... but I am working to be good now, and I spent good cash on 'em.
Jesus, it came to so much when I popped them all into my virtual basket, I nearly had a mind fart.

I think I need a separate computer that is only used for gaming like TS3. That way, I can add all the EP's and stuff.
TS3 lied about TS3 being able to run okay on old computer. the fack.

Could you post your dxdiag?

I'm sorry? My head couldn't process/understand what you just said. my what?

If you're on the computer you play TS3 on, that is. Go to the start menu, put 'dxdiag' into the search box, press 'save all information' save it wherever. It will be a text document that you can paste as a post on here. It just reveals the diagnostics of your computer, nothing personal or anything.

All of it? Ok

Um, according to that, your computer owns mine in a lot of aspects, including ram... you have almost double what I've got going on, so there's another issue here I think. Try updating you graphics card...

yeah, I always knew it was my graphics card. my step dad also has to check my computer because my internet works slow. I might switch to Google Chrome right now. But, my videos and programs start slow sometimes. Idk why my Host Process stops working.

Well your computer is sufficient in regards to requirements, but TS3 picks and chooses computers it wants to work with, so it could be a variety of underlying issues causing the problem. You should get it checked out if it's slow.
Guess what... I'm consdering posting on the official forums. O.O
I know, they're nutjobs (I say that in an endearing way... yeah).... but at least they play TS3. I'm kind of deprived being the sole Simmer on here. xD
