    Im not sure maybe another helper in here knows a way to lower your graphics if you can't do it from the launcher. If you own all those demanding expantion pakcs try removing one at a time and see if your game will play, but the demanding ep's requrie a better gaming video card.

    You can't change a laptop video card but you can on a desktop. Were you interested in buying a new laptop or desktop? The thing is a good gaming laptop is more expensive that a desktop. Once you buy a laptop your stuck with it cant change a thing accept the laptops that permit you to add more ram. One thing I can advise is do not get a laptop with intel graphics. There are people in here having trouble with dual graphics cards beacuse one of those cards is intel. AMD and Nvidia graphics are better and some AMD and Nivida are better than lower AMD and Nvidia..I can post a link in here but  You can google ---Mod the Sims 3 system requirements. They have a lot of video cards tested and which ones work and some listed that do not just so you can get an idea. In general the better the video card the more money that card will cost.
