Re: Can your computer run The Sims 3?
Thank you Cassie! {yes}
and its true, it happened to me
b4, a long time ago when I was in 6th grade
TS2 came out, I was really happy
then I put it in my old pc, it said that I didn`t work
So I was sad.
But then my step-dad bought a new one.
and it ran okay!
no excellent, but good enough to have fun and play until hours!

Re: Can your computer run The Sims 3?
Lol, it's like a pep talk. =P Honestly though, if you can run TS2, which is a huge game in itself, then I wouldn't worry too much with TS3, especially if they say it can run on old computers, and yours are both fairly new. Heck, mine is nearly 2 years old anyway so mine's not squeaky clean either.
I think we have to accept that lots of us will have to update at one point, with with the EPs as well, I know I will update, even if I don't need to. Sure, it may be expensive at times but it's all worth it for an awesome game right?

Re: Can your computer run The Sims 3?
Thanks Cassie, karma for you but my computer is vista laptop
and about the problems I have, I told my dad that it wouldn't work and he said
I can't do anything about it. I'd have to get a new computer.
Which they won't do because they bought me the laptop 1 and a half years ago
for my birthday. I told my mom too and she says I'm sorry. I guess that's it.

So...no sims 3 for me I guess...give that 70$ back to my dad for the collectors edition. (that was my christmas present)

Nope. No way, no giving up! I'll like, do my best to look into it right now.

Firstly, you say you failed on the video card and the speed? How much did you fail by though? How low was your bar-thing, if you understand?

You can just upgrade those items that fail in most cases. You can buy a later video card and install it, just check with the staff in the computer store for a compatible one that meets your needs.
Working on computers is so easy. I am 51 and I taught myself how to build a computer from scratch. If an old lady can do it anybody can, you just need to remove the old card and install the new one, and then install the new drivers. Our local library has books that tell you how to do it. I am still trying to figure out why IT workers are paid so much, what they do is not difficult.  Big Grin
