Just got Sims 3 and loaded it onto my very ancient machine   It's managing to run it (just ) mainly because the graphic card is just about the lowest spec that will support it.

I think I am going to bite the bullet and splash out some simoleans on something more up to date    Still at least then I'll be able to enjoy all the wonderful work that the people on the forum do at a decent res

So cheers to everyone here and keep posting
