Blue screen!!
unclesparks:
Anita, its posible you don't have enough RAM. When the game is running, tab back and go to task manager. How much memory is the game using? Mine uses between 600-900MB depending on the lot I'm on. I have 2GB RAM so its not an issue but if I have something running in the background and my processor is being stupid I can get the same thing. I have dual nVidia GeForce7600GS 256MB video cards and have never had a driver issue or any problems that others have reported. Granted, I never added Seasons, so maybe I will if I ever get it.
Its entirely possible that RAM is not the problem though, in which case I may not be able to help you. What ep do you have?

I know I shlouldn't be posting here due to my lack of knowledge about video cards. But it has happened to me, the blue screen and I just gave the computer some time and it came back. I talked to a friend of mine who works with computers and he said I should upgrade my memory. Maybe the same thing which happened to me is happening to you.

A few tips that I learned while fighting with both my own and my wife's computers when they were doing the same thing.
1) Your 'Virtual Memory' should be set to about three or four times that of your RAM (i.e. 1GB of RAM should equal 4096MB of 'Virtual Memory').
2) Make sure you have the latest drivers and software for your graphics adapter (card). It's advisable to check back with the manufacturer's website every so often, maybe once a month, to see if they've updated the drivers or software (ATI has done this a few times with their Catalyst Control Panel software).
3) Make sure that your display (monitor) has the appropriate driver installed, and not the default 'Plug & Play Monitor' driver. You may need to locate the manufacturer and model number of your display and then download the monitor driver.
4) Remember that excessive trees and mirrors can slow a lot down considerably as they are graphics hogs. Experience has also taught me that lots with 'playable basements' can sometimes cause glitches or delays.
Just a few tips, and hopefully my bad experiences can help you to eliminate yours.
Good luck.

LittleRed, when you get your new Nvidia card, you will be able to see the fish and the x-ray (snow) cursor, etc. I only have an Nvidia 6600 GT and I can see all of those things now. But, I do still get the blue screen occasionally and I did go and check to see if I had the latest drivers installed and I do. I also went to a place that's supposed to be able to check your computer to see if it will play the game (you pick which game from a list) and it said I had more than enough of everything. It's not cc as it happened when my folder was removed as well. As I said earlier, Nvidia is working on it apparently. Some Nvidia people don't have a problem, others do.
