Graphics Problem While Playing Sims 2

Featured Replies

About an hour in (sometimes less) playing the Sims 2 it lags and then turns off. My screen goes into a different setting (everything is big and the colors seem inverted) and 2 pop-ups come up. I wrote down what they said:

 

 

 

[hide=Windows - Display Driver Stopped Responding]The ialmrnt5 display driver has stopped working normally. Save your work and reboot the system to restore full display functionality. The next time you reboot the machine a dialog will be displayed giving you a chance to upload data about this failure to microsoft.[/hide]

 

 

 

[hide=The Sims 2]The graphics adapter in this system experienced an internal error. Please contact your graphics adapter manufacturer for technical support. The application will now terminate.[/hide]

 

 

 

After I hit ok to the pop-ups I restart my computer and everything seems to go back to normal.

 

Can you guys help? :wall:

Sounds like your resolution goes low and you are going into 16 bit colors. Have you reinstalled your graphics driver? What graphics card do you have?

I have no idea to be honest. The graphics card came pre-installed. Can you tell me how to check? Or how to reinstall my graphics driver?

It's an Intel gpu.

 

 

 

Right click on your wallpaper (i forgot the proper english word lol) - properties - settings. It should say "Intel..." something.

J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff movies

Je trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vie

Je ne me reconnais plus dans les gens

Je suis juste un cas désespérant

Et comme personne ne viendra me réclamer

Je terminerai comme un objet retrouvé
