Re: Geforce 760 GTX Not Recognized

I got to a higher up at EA. Sent them what they needed. I probably won't hear back from them until monday. Will keep you posted.

Update they got back to me and want me to start playing the game and report back. Im going to downoad Island Paradise and see if my game gets worse. I can always remove it. Ill keep you posted

Zack, one more thing have you tried switching mouses? Is your mouse set at 64 bit?I know this game does not like my gaming mouse update to 64 bit from my old computer. On this computer I just have my gaming mouse at 32 bit. I switched out several mice no diffrerence. get the same responce with the arrow keys as I do any mouse I use. I just wonder if your getting more lag than I am by having a 64 bit mouse???

I tired switching my mouse out. I got a new 2012 razor imperator and switched it with my old mouse and i didnt see any change. But i am not sure how to tell if my mouse it 64 bit. I always use the center mouse button to rotate the camera, but I will try with the UI and see if it doesn't lag as much.

How to tell if your mouse is 64 bit, possibly device manager?.I dont have my gaming mouse on this computer at the moment.  How I figured out my mouse was only 32, I went to the logitec web and downloaded the 64 bit but 64 bit download conflicts with the TS3W file. Since you have a gaming mouse you may find driver updates on the razor web for your mouse. And your on windows 7. Im on windows 8 and cant find anything LOL LOL LOL!

I found the folder for my razor driver in Program FIles (x86) which I guess means the driver is 32 bit. and there is only one option for the driver download.

Ok I would not worry about it then and a update to 64 bit mouse might conflict with your game worse so just leave that mouse where it is. I need to try and find a mouse with a 3.0 USB since my computers USB ports are all 3.0. It wont make a diffrence but Im getting pnp errors because of my mouse being 2.0

Zack, do you know how to change the Nvidia card from intergraded to dedicated? It seems my card switched during a video card update. I read my manual but the instructions do not match up with the Nvidia control panel I have installed. Thanks! I looked at your DxDiag and your card reads intergraded too. Is yours supposed to be dedicated or intergraded?

It should be dedicated It's not like a chipset. At least i dont think.

well, your DXDiag, That guy Paul who's thread you were also posting in has intergraded and so does mine. My Nvidia conrtol panel states I have Dedicated video memory 3072mb (3gb) GDDR5, then it states system video memory 0. Shared System memory 7894mb. (8gb) but my system has 16 gb ram????? WT????

It should read 0. 0 is saying that your graphics card has it's own dedicated memory for use and therefore will not allocate system video memory.

if it is supposed to read 0 than why are our DxDiag's reading intergraded. This is part of your dxdiag on page 2 and mine reads the same way. I spoke to Nvidia and they told me our DxDiag should not read intergraded and ASUS is givingme excuses because I spoke to them again.

Display Devices
---------------
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760
Manufacturer: NVIDIA
Chip type: GeForce GTX 760
DAC type: Integrated RAMDAC

Opps wait a minuite I think the intergraded issue is Nvidia and our screen? Maybe I need to learn to read DxDiag better!!!!!???? LOL

So it's not our cards? Are we supposed to have shared memory? I am so confused...

I don't know! LOL Im guessing right now that what Im reading is the screen and our card maybe intergraded? We need roberta591 to read this DxDiag! roberta591 if your on please read the intergraded issue on page 2 where the DxDiag is and tell us if this intergraded issue has to do with our screens and no our cards that are supposed to be dedicated. TY!

Zack intergraded does say display device so Im going to go with it means screen at the moment.

If I recall correctly the issues with sims sort of coincided when i updated the drivers right after i got my computer. Rolling them back didn't work so maybe this is the cause. 

I think it's just the game. It's really hot here so Im not in the mood to play but I will later actually start a game and let you know how it plays. I will put Island Paradise in the game but will not play IP and see if my screen lag gets worse than it already is just having that ep in my computer

I Havent even put in IP yet just added dragon valley and roaring heights. The screen is so shaky LOL. I can only predict what will happen with IP. Going to download now!!

Im shocked. IP is one of the less shaky worlds for me.???!!!!!! I havent tested roaring heights yet but dragon valley was shaky even on the automated intro into the town

thats the dragons going FUS RO DAHHH

typo

Thats exactly like me. IP is smooth like butter for the most part. If you have Uni go the that world, It is by far the WORST.

Zack that is the only EP I don't own. I played Uni in the sims 2 so I did not want it for 3. I have all ep's installed accept uni and pets. I own pets but have not played it. Do you have world adventures? They claim it conflicts with Uni. I like world adventures better than Uni. I have not tried to travel yet but traveling into the future and in world adventures I had no problem on my old computer. Im going to try and play for a few hours today and see how it goes.Ill report back later.

And strange that IP works on the 760 and 770 card, but two people in here with windows 8.1 and the 780 card IP does not work for them

Um okay I was playing when i reliazed that a great deal of textures look really pixelated. Mostly plain walls and skins and they look awful.  Also how do i post images?

Looking back at some of my older screens i see the same thing, i just never really noticed it before. Is that how its supposed to look?
