c. Note on Laptops

Laptops and graphic intensive games don't usually go well together. That isn't to say that your game cannot run on a laptop or even run well, even more so with the very latest graphic chipsets designed for laptops; however, based on some recent user experiences, it can be hard to get your game running correctly. Also remmeber that only the graphics cards listed by EA in the minimum specs are supported.

You can check the minimum specs with this link: The Sims 2 minimum Specs

Drivers for laptops are usually customized by the laptop manufacturer to be compatable with
  • the built in flat panel display.
  • any other graphics or video options installed in that specific computer.
and the graphics chip provider doesn't usually provide drivers direct from their own support sites. Therefore, if you cannot find drivers from the card manufacturer, you will need to visit the website of your laptop manufacturer to look for any updated graphics drivers.
