I think I fried my video card...

<< < (4/5) > >>

BeosBoxBoy:
Frog Girl - if you delete or move the player folders - the game will create them again from the files that it used when you first installed the game.  This takes a few moments, and may be missing things you are used to having (like your sims & downloads :lol: )

The right thing to do is to move the downloads, so you are on the ball with that.  :D

Frog Girl:
I took out the downloads folder and it still messed up so I will take out the Sims 2 folder and see if that does it. If it is, then what? Do I have to go thru everything and put it all back one at a time? What should I look for? Well I'm gonna go give it a try and see what happens.

Thanx for the help.:happy8:

Frog Girl:
Well any more ideas?:goodidea:  I just got the "Blue Screen of Death":evil1:  again after taking out the Sims 2 folder. So video card? If anyone has any other ideas, bring them on.:thumbup:

Thanx.:angel:

BeosBoxBoy:
Frog Girl - at this point you have eliminated the variable part of the equation (all the downloads, etc) - so you are right to suspect the video card.

Have you the ability to take the computer to a shop for testing? or perhaps you have a spare video card to try in the computer?

Frog Girl:
I could talk my husband into putting my old card back in, but he will have to take it out of the kids computer first. And that might not happen right away cuz he is on midnights right now.
I would be more than happy just to get a new card. I have been wanting one for a while now. But hubby got his first. So now it is my turn.

Thank you, beosboxboy, for all your help.:happy8:
And I want to apologize to indigocrystalca for sounding so mean.:icon9:  It was uncalled for and I'm sorry.:oops: :sad5:
