    What expansion/stuff packs do you have ?
    The more you have the more the game resources the game will ask to run.
    Minimum requirements are only for base game + the pack they listed on.
    Did you try playing with lower graphics settings ?

    Take a look at this chart, it seems your chipset is not working properly with some packs :

So, I just making requirements. I uninstalled sims,pets,and ambitions, and then just reinstalled sims and ambitions. If i put laptop in airplane mode and disable my webroot, it seems to run ok. Although at that time , I didnt have much time to play, so i'll try more today. Assuming that works, does anyone know a way to easily swap between expansions selectivly? I'd like to sometimes play on ambitions, and sometimes play on pets. I know I would probably have to just have to different games going , thats fine. But i dont know of how or if this would be possible.

    You can try something like this (you have to create an account if you don't have one).

    http://modthesims.info/d/499140

    It's called Sim Game Selector and it let you select wich expansion pack to launch with the game. 

    Any help with this tool shood be asked at ModTheSim in the appropriate thread 😉
