Error when running Sims2 When I try to run the Sims 2 on my notebook, it seems to work when it feels like working. WHen it does work, it is great, when it doesn't I get an error msg. I am running the game on an ASUS A6U notebook with all the required specs to run the game. This is the error msg that I am recieving: Sorry I can't make that any bigger, it isn't letting me. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, and this hasn't fixed the problem. But if anyone can help that would be awesome!! thankyou all I wanna do is play the sims
LOL. Interesting. I happen to have access to the Asus partner sites. Looks like you came to the right place. Anyhow, the notebook is equipped with the SIS Mirage TM 2 Graphics (SIS M760GX) Most I can suggest you can do to resolve the choppiness is update the drivers. http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=A6U
Running TS2 on a laptop is always problematic. Windows error messages are often generated when a piece of hardware is not working or unexpectedly unavailable. It may be that if the system is too warm the BIOS cuts out the Directx element of the display drivers causing Windows to interpret the "fault" as an error. Certainly as an explanation this accounts for the on/off nature of the problem ...
