I have a GTX 650, fully updated. I had this problem a couple weeks ago but didn't think anything of the sort. Maybe, it could be the brightness. I changed all my brightness and etc to higher the contrast and stuff just to make the screen look more vivid. But, I reset it to the defaults in the Nvidia control panel yesterday…
I removed all my saves a couple of days ago for Island Paradise, I never used them anyway. So I dont have a save of Lucky Palms. Its always when I load it up, the sky does eventually change in a couple of Sim days, Im just curious because its supposed to be Summer lol.
I done it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAY! Lol. It had something to do with Secure Boot and Legacy Boot in Windows 8 which was preventing me from booting with a different graphics card. I just wanna spread the word of this now because I know so many people facing this problem! Im so happy!!!
Ive done some research and found some interesting news. Firstly, some graphic cards require power from the actual psu, not the pci-e. And, you need to uninstall your device from device manager and remove any drivers. When I checked my PC when I was home, my GT640 driver was installed again, but I uninstalled it before I…
Ooops! When I said 'GPU' in my last post I meant Graphics card, meaning he tried both from the store which didnt work, it was on but no display. But my Nvidia GT 640 was working and displayed image. I dont know what gpu I have, i dont think, my default graphics card is Nvidia GT640, i have a HP 2311x Monitor 1920x1080, the…
Thankyou. I will post a link to my computer, and my NEW power supply. Could you please tell me whether the GTX 660 SC Version of EVGA's will work, because I did see other problems such as the BIOS not recognizing it, or something like that.…
This is not my day. I went on Sunday, my birthday, to upgrade my PC. I got told it would be finished the same day, no problem. I went home and never got a call back until the following morning which is the 17th at 9:45. I got told that they needed the password to install the driver. After that I was very pleased and…
Sorry I havent answered sooner, Ive had a kidney infection and im really ill. So basically, I copy my original .sgr files to my bin folder where my edited .sgr files are, then I copy and past the original ones, overwriting the edited ones, patch/install game, and then re-copy my edited .sgr files back?:)
Hey, guys! I'm back, just to update I have been playing recently with my new family, I finally got a horse, it used to lag whenever I adopted one. It doesn't now! Also, just got back from my grandma's. Me and her are going to visit my local PC World on upgrade options. I need to speak to them about suitable graphics cards,…
Really well! I am loving the performance. In my older gameplay, the performance would jitter when I hovered over tree's, fountains, large houses. Now, it's speeding through them. I had a little play of the Goth family in Sunset Valley, their house use to be slow for me, it's not anymore. Now I actually feel like I want to…
Oh my...I am really gonna break down in tears! The game is stunningly faster! No jittery performance, very smooth camera movements with all on high settings! I couldnt thankyou guys enough, saved me £350! You will all be gifted during this week and next <3
It.....worked! Just loading a world right now. Before I leave it though, what are the cautions of having this edited file, do I need to do anything before I patch when an update comes out?? And also, what are the .orig files actually needed for?
I was going to, I was just re-assuring incase I screwed everything up. :) I have replaced my GraphicsCard.sgr file now. Where do I place the .ORIG files?
So alls I have to do is add the downloaded file to my bin folder? Do I still need to copy and past the normal versions of the sfg files and make them .orig?
Nope, the whole directory changed aswell as deleting the folder in my documents. But there was more in the Sims wiki than just adding the .sgr file in the bin folder?
Thanks! So just to let you know, my whole game is reset so I dont have any edited files in or anything, just like before I messed it up and changed it...So if I put this in it will work? What about the .orig files etc?
Right. So, if you don't mind, could you provide easy 1-5 Step on how to do it all. Because I don't understand a lot of things. Sorry if it is annoying, it is just I never had messed with my files before, that is why I messed it up, LOL. And the instructions on the Sims Wiki Site are too complex for me.
It was this: 0x124b "GT 640" I replaced the 640M which was on Graphics Cards. I just changed the four letters after the X at the start, and removed the M.
Nope, still hasnt. It crashed too, map view everything is blue, with hints of white for the grass. Its messed up, I dont know how though if everything is replaced normally?
I dont know now, the deviceconfig file just displays 'Options/default options' not any words, numbers. Im scared now because its still not recognized when I replaced my original files back in??:(
Just loaded into game. I got a popup saying my hardware wasnt recognized, nor was the graphics card. Then when i went into options, everything was lowest as possible, resolution was 1024x768 and my high-detail lots had the mover button taken off so I couldnt change how many lots I wanted to load. Ive just changed all my…
