I have an AMD Radeon HD65300 Graphics Card I think.  That is considered a Graphics Card right?  

As far as disc space is concerned, in the C: Drive I have 768 GB free of 914 GB.

Hope this helps!

    If this helps, the error message it presents is "The Sims 3 Has Stopped Working."

      Don't think that's a card. Rather a chip.

      If you post the DxDiag part about it, I can check on the drivers and dedicated memory.

      For now, turn down your graphic options (ingame) and turn off mirror reflections.
