failed to allocate a graphics resource.simcity will now exit.[1008]
Whenever I try to open the game, I get this error. I went on systemrequirementslab, and it said I didn't have enough video memory, but I can run some games where it says that. Would I be able to change this by increasing and allocating ram?
Thanks in advance.
