Re: My settings reset every time I shut down my game.

@pinkswirl1342  Go into Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 and remove the file labeled options.ini.  It might be corrupted and not saving your settings.  The graphics card message is also normal with a new copy of options.ini, or one that doesn't record the fact it already warned you about the unrecognized graphics card.  I can help you get it recognized if you want; just let me know.  But deal with the resetting options file first.

    Thank you very much. I had the same problem, the game would reset the seetings every time. I removed the "options" file and that seemed to resolve the problem.
