Re: Sims 3 BSOD Help

The link you provided DriverTuner does detect updates require for 5 of my drivers.

1 update for Microsoft ehome infrared Transceiver under Human Interface Devices.

1 update for RealTek PCIE CardReader under Memory Technology Driver.

3 updates under System devices for:  

 

Xeon(R) Processor E3-1200 v2/3rd Gen Core processor DRAM controller - 0150 

Xeon(R) Processor E3-1200 v2/3rd Gen Core processor PCI Express Root Port -0151

Intel(R) 6 Series/C200  Series Chipset Family PCI Express Root Port 2 - 1C12

 

However to update the above drivers using DriverTuner I have to made registration fee of around US$29.98. :robotvery-happy:

 

I also have another two questions to end this:

 

Even with all latest drivers updated will other factors cause sudden bsod's like one great example system service exception and less minor desktop crash during Sims 3 gameplay cause I also have some mods and other EP installed like University, Generations, Ambitions, Into the future, Island Paradise, World Adventures, Night Life etc?

 

Will my PC operating systems support Sims 4?

    If anything is defective in your hardware, you can still get BSOD.

    As for Sims 4. The specs are not out but I would be very surprised if Windows 7 is not supported. Many still use it. Microsoft has only ceased support for XP. So XP users might not be able to play but Windows 7 should be fine.

    That was a quick google that totally skipped the official URL somehow.  I regret a hastiness that created any confusion.  Microsoft is still a poor choice for obtaining drivers, but the graphics drivers can be totally free from AMD, at their own URL

    Have you realize the mistake you made? You made me paid the registration fee for nothing.

    That registration fee amount to me is nothing, but its more about the reliability and integrity issue here.
