Graphics Issue.

Graphics Issue.
K, so I'm saving up as of now, for the next probably 10 weeks for a new graphics card.
I need this, because I can't install anything over OFB because the walls flash red.
I've been told this is the fault of my graphics card and I need a new one
BUT
I don't know what my card is in the first place, OR what I'm gonna need to buy.
Any advice?  {blink}
I'm sorry in advance, cause this is so loosely put together.
I hate my stupid computer  {cursing}

Re: Graphics Issue.
First of all, go here and choose the latest game you have. It will tell you what is out of date and what isn't.

Let us know what it says!

Re: Graphics Issue.
Then it isn't a graphics card problem. Anything about drivers or anything? Anything not pass?

Re: Graphics Issue.
Well when I checked it for pets [what I wanted to install] it said the video card failed.
So I'm thinking thats it.

Re: Graphics Issue.
Thanks Bat for the link to that site, it is very good.

If I had known about it months ago, I could have loaded Sims onto this laptop before putting my disks in storage. Now I am wishing the box was not at the back of the storage locker and probably very hard to find.  {lol}

EDIT:
My Favourite son (only one) went out and bought me Double deluxe and Mansions stuff pack when he heard that sims 3 was put on hold.  Big Grin
