I am beyond my wits end now.back in August, my laptop kicked the bucket or at least the keyboard did.I decided to go for a desktop
a time around, I had gotten a skytech gaming desktop, but the computer was doing funky graphic issues even upon booting it up.So I swapped it out for a second one and that one would barely even run.This time I returned the second one and went to another store and got a third one, similiar in brand just slightly different.

I have had multiple people try to help me with this, including nvidia.
We tried:
1.getting the card recgonized.
2.Frame rate is capped at 59 - I verified this by bring up the cheat.
3.Tried V-ysnic on, V-sync off
4.Tried swapping out cords and different outlets.
5.Tried DDU in safe mode of graphics drivers.
6.Tried fullscreen, and non-full screen.
7.Nvidia had me go in and adjust some settings in the control panel.
But I don't remember what.

This thing is heavy to move on my own, so I haven't brought it down to where I got it
yet, trying to avoid having to do that as I have a hard time lifting the tower.Plus I use it
for work and hate to be out of a computer for weeks.But wanted to get someone else's opinion.
Skytech seems to think its a Sims 3 issue.

Only thing I can think of is to make sure everything is secure in the box and nothing is loose.

This is a longshot, but have you tried a different monitor?

I actually was wondering if it could be the monitor.But I wasn't sure if a monitor
would cause flickering or not.
It is a cheap gaming monitor. Quality is terrible on it.I do really
hate this monitor. Hoping to get one for XMAS.If I do, I'll try a new one.
Thanks for the suggestions It really is a mystery.

I looked at that too and the monitor you have appears to be connected properly, but you never know. Since I didn't see anything with the other hardware the monitor was the only other thing I could think of. I hope you can get it sorted so you can play your game in peace.
Best of luck.

That's okay.I appreciate the insight.=)
Maybe its just a nvidia thing.I returned the computer 3 times, so I find it hard
to believe I'm that unlucky. I just ignore it, as it doesn't seem to hinder performance...
just hoping I'm not frying the card by continuing to play.
Even the skytech folks are at a lost.They said they could send me a new graphics card, but I have to ship this one back first.
Which means I'd have to go without my computer for a bit.
