Old Laptop perfect for running sims 2?

You can look inside the read me files of TS2 and see what video cards or chips were acceptable back in the day. I would find one with Windows 7 on it just to play the game and not ever connect it to the internet. But laptops never did very well for TS2 but at least a 2.5ghs processor or more. Anything (video chips and or cards) that are much newer than the requirements will still require you to use the Graphic Rule Maker to make the game 'see' the better, newer card or chips and processors.
