Graphics Problems

juliestey · 21-09-2009, 09:43 PM

I have an Acer Aspire 7530 laptop and when i got sims 3 it all worked fine for while until the new patch came along. I cant add a screenshot on the forum yet so ill try to explain, its like big triangles coming of different parts of the sims bodys. I tried reinstaling without the patch but now theres no difference.

Any kind of help is welcome

Thank you
Julie.

That's caused by your videocard.It sounds like it's overheating.Some videocards arn't working with this game.

If it was really due to over-heating the graphics errors would probably cover more of the screen than justs sims.

Have you tried updating your graphics drivers???
