Sims 3 white lines
I’ve been playing sims 3 on my new laptop! It’s nvidia GeForce gtx 1650 but in the game, my furniture has white lines that flicker and those lines can be seen on clothes as well. I don’t know what to...
my game is already on windowed mode and my laptop is always charging when i play the sims 3. I don't there's any other program interfering with the game but thank you for your help!
@Bts152 I meant that it might be helpful to switch back and forth between fullscreen and windowed modes, to see whether the game looked better in one than the other. It's possible fullscreen mode will take care of the issue.
If it doesn't though, please try playing with the Alienware Command Center disabled. You can just kill it in the Task Manager: hit crtl-alt-delete, bring up the TM, find anything with "Alienware" in its name in the background tasks, and End Task. It will restart the next time you reboot your computer, but in the interim, it shouldn't affect how Sims 3 runs.
Origin is also throwing errors, so it's a good idea to clear its cache, uninstall it "the hard way," and reinstall. This shouldn't affect any of your installed games.

When I use the full screen, my screen would always flicker so the windowed mode helps with that. I’ll try to disable the Alienware command center but what should I do if that doesn’t fix my game problem?
@Bts152 Did you have a chance to test this? Please let me know how it goes, or how it went. There are plenty of other things to try, but it's easiest to go in order: the Alienware Command Center is throwing errors, so it should be disabled at least for now.
Hi! I’ve uninstalled it but the lines are still showing up on furniture and clothes :/
