I decided to reinstall The Sims 2 recently on my new laptop (1050ti), however I ran into issues with the graphics and screen resolution/size. First the game wouldn't run full screen so I used window mode through properties, then the graphics were low and the screen resolution stuck at 800x600, following other people's advice I installed Graphics Rules Maker and was able to fix the low graphics, however oddly the screen resolution remained the same and wouldn't change no matter what, so I decided to manually do it by editing graphicrules.sgr following a simsvip guide.
STILL didn't work so I decided to tweak around I guess following people's suggestions in the comments, and now my resolution has gone down and there is no other option other than 320x200, and nothing seems to fix that either, I have repaired and uninstalled but its still stuck (which doesn't make sense, shouldn't it reset to 800x600??) and Graphics Rules Maker hasn't been much help either.
I don't know what to do now, I just want the 800x600 option back at least.
