Sims 2 Problems
Hello! I've done many many searches but cannot find anything that describes my issue exactly so here I am. I just bought a new laptop so I could play Sims 2 (and 3) from the comfort of my couch. It's an HP Omen, Nvidia GeForce 3060 graphics card. When I install the game, it loads up fine and will even do the pan across the neighborhood, and then when that ends and the next pop up appears, I get basically graphics confetti and it locks up and I have to restart the laptop. I have tried it with the GRM,, without the GRM, I tried manually editing the graphics file, I tried using Lazy Duchess's launcher and even starting it totally vanilla and none of that has worked. I also tried making it compatible with Windows Vista instead of 11 and that didn't work either. I've been playing the Sims a long time and am pretty savvy about fixing/modding the game but this time I am stumped 🤔. Attached is a screenshot of the graphics modern art. Thank you!
- @Tremayne4260 Hi and thanks for replying. Yes it's Sims 2 as the title indicates 🙂 and I did have the most recent GRM, but I figured out what the problem was! My laptop has two settings for gaming, discrete and hybrid and we discovered it has to be set to discrete so it only pulls from the one graphics card. Once I switched that it worked great.
