Well, I told my parents about it (over the shock lol xD)
and my dad has a friend who's an electrician. He built a computer from scratch
and I'm gonna try and sweet talk my mom so she'll agree to buy the parts so my dad's
friend can make me a gaming computer xDD I'm so sneaky.
I bet you I'll get it (not because I'm spoilt it's just 'cuz I'm a really good negotiator ;D)
Yay!
Good luck with that!I dunno, I think it's my OCD but this is my score on the test...
![[Image: specs.jpg]](http://i46.photobucket.com/albums/f137/xBethany456x/specs.jpg)
... and it's just, annoying me SO much that it's not right at the top next to 'fast', not because I want or need it to be right at the top, but I feel like it has to be because that space in between the bar and 'fast' is annoying me. I feel like the bar should be at the top so the space doesn't exist. It's tearing my hair out. I have problems.

XD Well it's way over the Minimum point, so don't worry there.
I've just tried it again and it's decided to fail me this time. Only my graphics is failing me...x[
How unfunny.
Re: Can your computer run The Sims 3? - Cassie - 06-04-2009 04:15 PM
How can it change it's mind a second time? That's weird. ???
What does graphics come under? OMG this test is freaking me out. I don't like how it puts things in perspective. I feel really uncomfortable looking at my results. Okay seriously I have issues. I keep opening that site though, and redoing the test, expecting it to randomly fail me.
Re: Can your computer run The Sims 3? - Munsta - 06-04-2009 04:17 PM
I have no idea!
I thought your graphics came under "Video Card"
This is what mines says;
dateline= Wrote:Video RAM: Required - 128 MB , You have - 256 MB
Video Card 3D Acceleration: Required - Yes , You have - Yes
Pixel Shader Ver.: Required - 2.0 , You have - 2.0
So it passes on all 3 of them, but it still fails the overall video card...WTF?!!!!!!!!
Re: Can your computer run The Sims 3? - Cassie - 06-04-2009 04:26 PM
Hah, you have exactly the same video RAM as I do. Random fact.
And I was just going to say before I read your last sentence, you passed all of them so eh, why do you fail? Maybe it got glitchified... you should try it again.
Re: Can your computer run The Sims 3? - Munsta - 06-04-2009 04:30 PM
LOL I did, and it still says fail. x[
Eh, I'm on PCWorld atm...Looking at new PC's and Cards...EXPENSIVE x|
If I want one i'll have to buy it myself because my mum will never buy me a computer or laptop in the next...3 years? XD Since I got this coming up for 3 years ago and my laptop 1 year ago. So yeah...x] Old computer, kinda...XD
Gah, I wish I had a better video card.
