yea, this laptop isnt even paid off so theres no way ill be trading in. I should have plenty of room bcuz this laptop crashed and the only things I reinstalled was Windows, Microsoft Office,Aim, Sims 2 University and Pets. It's weird that it cant run Seasons and like I said its like a Microsoft error message coming up. I dunno. I'm gonna try deleting some stuff to get it up and running. Let me know if any1 else has any ideas
Deleting isn't going to do a darn diddly thing. It's your video card that's stopping it. I ran TS2 up to Nightlife on a laptop that didn't meet the posted requirements....for RAM, not for the video card. You can have all the RAM and harddrive space in the world, but it won't do you any good if your video card simply can't display the proper graphics (T&L, dedicated memory are your main issues).
Unfortunately, you're kind of screwed. In the future, make sure that your first priority in a computer is a good-to-fantastic graphics card. That should keep you covered with most games that come out in the next two years. 'Cause let's face it, after two years with a laptop, you pretty much have to trade in...
From a former laptop junkie, once you go desktop, you'll never go back. My baby is running great for now and prolly for the next year. After that, I will probably have issues with not meeting requirements for the shiniest games, but desktops are pretty easily upgradable.
