Hey Simmers!
Since i bought my new computer,the game run very slowly and laggy,even if the new laptop is stronger than the laptop i used to play with.
I Play with -Nvidia 840M -4Gb Ram (memory)-Windows 10-Intel i5.
i already tried this:
-Update The Game.
-Switch to 64 Bit.
-Low Resolution.
-Windowed mode.
-Make sure that the game is runing with the Nvidia Graphics.
-No Mods.
Maybe it's related to Windows10?
in any way thanks for reading i hope you will be able to answer!

Again: don't defrag if you have an SSD.
-How many expansions, stuffpacks and gamepacks have you got installed as of now? With each EP, GP, or even SP it becomes more and more taxing on your PC, no matter the quantity. Big performance hitters are usually Cats and Dogs and Seasons. In terms of Gamepacks, probably Jungle Adventures since it brings a whole big new jungle with it.
Some things I've noticed both in your post and in your pastebin:
This may not always be the solution, but problems like lag are very 'personal' in the sence that everyone experiences different type of lag (as explained in the opening post above)
Please try the things suggested in the lists above, I know it may seem pretty basic stuff, but you never know.
If you need links on how to clear caches, please don't hesitate to ask.
That NVidia 840M (quadcore) card was in my last laptop that I bought 4 years ago and I have moved on. The game still runs quite well on medium settings though in 64Bit and full screen mode. I had an i7 with 16Gig of Ram with the computer though.
Being new and a Windows 10 computer could mean that updates are being downloaded in the background whilst you play. I had two huge ones that were downloaded after I bought one recently. You could try checking the Windows settings or Microsoft Forum for help. I found letting NVidia find the game and set optimal settings for it helped and also making sure that you do use the NVidia card only for the game.
Part of the DxDiag is missing . This DxDiag states you have a GT 820m not 840m. The 820m is below requirements to run the game .
@phoebebebe13 i know this is ain't the best card,but i know that i can play at least at the medium settings.
Thanks all for keeping replying
