Hi simmers!

So today I got a new pc (I had a laptop before but it broke so I got a new pc) when I downloaded Ea it was like 11 am. After it download I redeemed a pack. I was so happy that I could play again after 2 yrs Making the characters was good no Issues but when I was finished w the characters I brought a house and then it started glitching. I tryd many options like repair the game(I tried it 4 times) didn’t work or look into the mod  folder. There was only resource. I just wanted to play sims again after 2 yrs 😔

    Please also open the case, just take the side panel off, and look at the motherboard to see whether your computer has a dedicated graphics card.  It would be large and in the center, just below the midline.  Let me know if you do, and what model it is.  If you don't have one, that's fine, you don't need to do anything else.

    If you don't know what you're looking at, find a YouTube guide that explains how to upgrade a graphics card.  That will show the host removing an existing card, so you'll see what it looks like and where it would be installed if it were present.

  • ij39kzli80d9  I am asking you if you have a dedicated graphics card.  Please answer yes or no.  This is not about updating; this is about answering a question so I can rule out other sources of error.

    Please also run a new dxdiag and post it.

    If you would like to get tech help in German instead, let me know.  Or you can post in the German Sims 4 tech forum:

  • ij39kzli80d9​  I have described how to check multiple times.  If you still don't understand, ask a friend or family member to help.

    Alternately, post in the German forum, as linked above.

  • ij39kzli80d9​  I don't want another dxdiag.  I want you to open the computer case and see whether you have a dedicated graphics card.  I have said this several times already.  If you can't follow basic instructions, I'm sorry but I don't know that I can help you at all.
