Geforce 760 GTX Not Recognized

I just got a Nvidia Geforce 760 GTX put into my machine and i have been getting some crappy preformance from sims 3 and a pop up saying my graphics card isn't recognized. I looked in my device config file and saw it says found 0 matched 0. I looked up how to get the game to recognize my card but I cant figure out what changes need to be made to my sgr files.

    Crin (hellper in here)  I think had said previously some people have a probem with gforce  experience not working in the game. Something like that. So far mine is working fine

    I don't know. I know if you do not keep vsync on this game will fry your card. Maybe you just need to uninstall and reinstall again on Nvidia? That is so strange that your vsync is working everywhere but the sims??!!! Your the first person I have seen that has this issue.

  • I found out you can exit Geforce Experiance. The Nvidia Control Panel will still run so vsync won't be affected

    How do you do that and is your game running better?

  • Not really. You just go into the tray of your taskbar find the Nvidia Geforce Icon right-click and click exit on the menu.

    Thanks. It's not interfearing with my game. Since you updated your card your still get the fps drops in game but not in cas?

  • Cas it is a stable 59-60. Unless loading clothes (I have all EPs so I have a lot) which it can go down to like 57 ish. But even when it barley drops it still looks a little choppy. But like I said only if it's loading something.
