Sims 3 incompatible Intel graphics card?
I just downloaded the Sims 3 on a new Asus laptop. When I try to run it from the launcher, I get a popup saying that no supported graphics card is detected. My graphics card is Intel(R) HD Graphics...

@fangfluffy you shouldn't have to change anything. just double click the .sgr file and you should be asked what to use. Just pick notepad. It is a text file and notepad should open it.
@roberta591 I guess my computer hid notepad from me, even though it was there for other files. After some tinkering I got it to let me open .sgr files with it. I'm using the tutorial and did everything for the GraphicsCard section, but I'm lost with GraphicsRules. Mainly, I don't know where the author found the old information numbers to refer to and change. I looked at the pictures on the wiki page, but I can't figure out how they knew what the old card was referred to in the GraphicsRules text. I'm sorry if I'm missing something obvious, but I've never done anything like this and am trying to teach myself as I go.
@fangfluffy The rules line is just the beginning of the line - just insert the R5 match section. It has to be right or it probably won't work correctly or not at all. The cards file is simple - just add a line. This is like programming (only simpler) - if the computer does not like what is presented (written) it's not going to like it. I've attached two partial examples I THINK may work as I have no way to test it.
