  • I am thinking it is just your pc as I can not upload anything on my own PC and we have checked out every possible thing we can think of that would keep me from doing it..It tells me to log in constantly even though I'm already logged in..however I can upload from the other two pcs in our house as well as from my laptop and…
  • Not to post the obvious....but...you also have to make sure that the bed can be reached from both sides...if they can't walk up to the empty side they wont get in the bed so make sure the bed is open on both sides away from walls...I'm sure you already knew this but I have found in these forums that sometimes people just…
  • Indeed that is what it means...time to go shopping :)
  • People have also reported the same problems and upon looking at their specs they didn't have enough memory so you might want to verify how much memory you have as well.
  • I havn't been able to upload at all...it keeps telling me to sign in even though I'm already signed in.
  • From what I have been reading alot of people are having this issue...I can fast forward at all the different speeds and it works fine but for others that isn't the case...your not alone...but from all that I have read its either a bug/glitch/problem in the game that people are awaiting a fix for.

  • Posts about uploading have been put in a few different places and no one has yet to reply with a fix of any kind for it...I havn't been able to upload at all myself...so I'm just playing the waiting game.
  • EVERY setting on mine is maxed out as well and I've got to say...It looks AMAZING. I'm impressed with the looks and how well the game runs I just wish it gave us more options...I expected it to be a bit more in depth with alot more options than we ended up getting as far as customization for our sims and their surroundings…
  • Not knowing what video card and sound card you have I can't tell you exactly where to go but you would go to the manufacturer site ie: ATI, Nvidia, etc... Also as the previous poster said if you don't know what video and such you have you might want to check at canyourunit to be sure before you spend any money.
  • Windows Vista 64 AMD Phenom Quad Core Processor 8GB Memory ATI Sapphire 4870 1GB Video Card
  • Most games require you to have the latest drivers for your video and sound but that is no issue just download and install it takes just a few minutes...if you have the correct drivers and enough memory it should stop the problems your having provided your processor is indeed at LEAST the minimum.
  • More than likely it will not run at all, it will shut down, black out...etc you HAVE to meet min specs for any game.
  • If your going to run Vista you need a 2.4 processor and at least at 1.5g RAM/Memory If your going to run XP you need 2.0 processor and at least 1g RAM/Memory those are the two main things you can look for when shopping even if you don't know anything about computers those will be listed very plainly for you to see. Pretty…
  • I'm having the same issue...thats the only reason I've been on these boards all freaking day :/ It shows I'm logged in but it tells me to log in so I try to log in and it just tells me to log in again...so I log out completely shut the launcher and try again...nothing...I tried running as administrator, I tried running in…
  • I can honestly say I've had no issues with the game, my speeds all work as they are supposed to and my flash drive fits and stays just like its supposed to...and although what you have said isn't something I have not read at least 50 times before on these forums...the way yours was written in the great detail was at least…
  • Don't feel bad I havn't gotten my preorder code either. :/
  • Indeed your too low on memory..you can get memory pretty cheap at sites like www.newegg.com and www.directron.com...if you don't know anything about pcs then I would suggest emailing or calling a computer place sending them your specs and the Sims3 Requirements and let them tell you what you need.
  • Yea it looks like you have a page file set up for some extra memory useage but that doesnt work the same so it isn't going to help ya...go get ya some cheap memory and your good to go. Good PC Part Sites... www.newegg.com www.directron.com
    in Now what? Comment by Psykhotik June 2009
  • I would never in my lifetime recommend anyone to buy a Mac...If you want gaming...DON'T go Mac...your limited...very limited....and you pay more. You hear about more issues with PC but thats because you have FAR FAR more people using PC..If you had more people using MAC you would hear just as many complaints...Mac isn't…
  • I read and reread that to be sure but it looks to me like you have 512 RAM? If I read that right then you are in desperate need of RAM and that is very likely your problem thats half of the min recommended spec. I had to call my husband over to double check that for me I have looked at so many specs today I thought I was…

  • It's no problem I understand your frustration...I have a laptop as well and it is painful to replace them since you can not replace pieces in them like a desktop...I paid 3k for mine when I bought it two years ago and it is now only used for school/work as it doesn't run any games anymore due to outdated graphics.
  • I'm sorry you feel that way...I indeed answered your question...where I said unless you want to upgrade then no you can not....they don't make things to make your computer have better processors and memory...you either upgrade it to those or you don't get it...no need to be quite so rude when I was helping you by answering…
  • I agree...I've done it and it takes a good while to get to that point and there has been times the option was there but I did something else planning to do that option next and it was gone, I had to work at romantic a bit more to get the option to do it again...
  • Your laptop doesn't even meet the minimum for Vista you have a 1.7 you need a 2.4 and you need 1.5 Ram you have 1....unless you want to pay a hefty sum to upgrade your laptop then no....its not going to run.
  • I won't say you picked a bad pc because that could be something as simple as a power supply issue or it is over heating...which is a good posibility with a game that requires so much from your video card. If you don't normally play games with such high specs you may not have encounterd this issue yet as you have never…
  • You have to remember your download speed varies by your connection/your connection with the site your downloading from as well as the amount of traffic that site is getting hit with...I would imagine its getting hit hard so I'd pop in a movie and grab a sleeping bag and relax its gonna be a while :P P.S- you can also check…
  • PCIe 2.0 dictates twice the throughput of 1.1. 2.0 is forwards and backwards compatible: meaning you can run 1.0/1.1 devices in a 2.0 slot, and also run 2.0 compliant devices in a 1.0/1.1 slot A good place to look up technical information is www.tomshardware.com my husband and I know alot about PCs but anytime we don't…
  • you dont have to read everything..just do a search...however www.thesims3.com/collector to redeem your code for the car and http://store.thesims3.com/riverview.html?intcmp=eaint101 for the neighborhood.
