a game without text

Please I need help. After the last update, the text in the game does not load, show me some code - 439AF8D9. We tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, but unfortunately it's still the same. We tried removing the mods and the game won't even start. Don't know what to do with it? Thank you

  • has5eov3l75y  Please try playing in a clean user folder.  Move the entire Sims 4 folder out of Documents > Electronic Arts and onto your desktop.  When you launch the game, if it launches, a clean folder will spawn with no content.  (Your saves and other content will be intact in the folder you've moved but temporarily unread by the game.)  Don't add anything to the new folder yet; just start a new save and see how it runs.

    If you still can't play, please provide a dxdiag.  Hit Windows key-R, enter dxdiag in the run box, wait for the scan to finish, click "Save all information," and save the file to your desktop.  From there, you can attach it to a reply using the camera (Insert Media) icon included with the other formatting buttons.

      thank you, unfortunately, after moving the folder to the phone, the game cannot be started. I tried the second method, but I don't know what to do after moving DxDiag to the desktop.

  • has5eov3l75y  Please update the driver for your graphics chip, which is a few years old.  Here's the newest driver from Intel:

    https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/196451/intel-core-i310110u-processor-4m-cache-up-to-4-10-ghz/downloads.html

    You want the 7th-10th gen driver, dated September 3.  Run the installer as an admin: right-click the download and select "Run as administrator."  Restart your computer after installing and before trying to play.

    If that doesn't help, please disable your virtual display software, at least as a test.  You should be able to shut it down in the Task Manager; please check the background processes list too.

      unfortunately the first option doesn't work for me either and I don't know how to do the second one at all

  • has5eov3l75y  What do you mean, it doesn't work for you?  If you get an error message, please post a screenshot of it.

    The virtual display software can be shut down in the Task Manager, as I mentioned.

      I installed the graphics chip, but the game still has no text.
      I couldn't find the virtual display software at all.
