Troubleshooting No supported video graphics card?

A new DVI cable can be got for pretty cheap off of Ebay or anywhere.

 

I've borrowed a dvi cable which works with another computer fine and it is still coming up with the same error.. any suggestions on what I should try now please ?

 

Hi, found out what the problem was, something on the computer for the past year has not allowed window to search for updates (so nothing has been updated) and i search for a few hours fixed that, installed all 150 updates that needed to be done, restarted the computer and now is all working (including the dvi cords which weren't yesterday)

 

Wow that's a lot of updates but at least you got it working!

 

Hi, I have the same problem. Please help!

 

So there's no way in getting an actual video graphics card or downloading anything so that I can actually play the game?

 

If the specs I looked up for your computer match what you have then no there's not.
The power supply you have isn't powerful enough to handle anything worthwhile.
I'd suggest start looking for a better computer that does not have any integrated graphics on it.

 

please someone help me i have just brought a new computer and installed sims 3 it starts up the game and it says cannot recognise graphics card but when it loads the world the town its a grey and the sea is dark blue its set all the graphics settings to low and you cant change them. i have done a dxdiag report please tell me theres a solution and i can play :(

 

my dxdiag report

 

I hate to say this but the computer you've got is not strong enough to play the game.
If this is a laptop there are no upgrades you can do to it to help it either.

 

yeah it is i have fixed this now you just have to run it as administrator and in compatibility mode its a computer not a laptop thanks for your help anyways.

 

this is a computer are there any updates i can do ?

 

so is it my actuall computer or my graphics card because the game is very laggy in compatibilty mode :(

 

Both actually , the game really requires a more powerful cpu (the brain) when you use a integrated video chip like you have .
Because you have only the built in video the cpu has to work a lot harder than it should.
I see you have the capability to add a video card but the power supply your computer has is a low wattage model which may not be enough to power a video card.
If you got this at a electronics place like Best Buys you might ask them about it but it would be costly to do so (by the time they add labor and whatnot.)
