Technical problems with THE HORROR: downloading, installing, and running it
Vren Lyet:
Well, my game crashes mostly when I try to use the neighbourhood view, which is especially annoying as being a totally new feature in Sims 3, of course - only sometimes it crashes when in sim view, which again makes me presume it's due to the data corruption in my downloaded ISO. I so much hope that to be the cause.

Hi all, not a noob just can't remember what my username used to be (dang it!!!)
Anyways, count me in on the ATI video problems. I have an X1950 and as soon as I try to do anything in CAS I get those funky rendering things that make the sims look like they have spikes through their bodies.....or they are unicorns. (I like unicorns better)
As far as crashing, I got the blue screen once but I think that was a random as I had just fiddled with my drivers and settings and stuffies.

That may not be just the card. It could be that the card is unsupported. It could be your drivers, it could be that you have more then one set of drivers installed, it could be overheating. Those lines are called artifacts by the way. Try searching the term artifacing.

Yeah artifacts!! I couldn't remember.
This card is listed as being game compatible by EAxis (but yeah....)
I originally tried it with the 8.5 drivers and then updated to 9.3 from March and neither worked. I always overwrite my drivers to guarantee only one set.
Tomorrow I am going to switch out to my Nvidia 8600 and see if that works.
