Most Noticed during Sims 3 my girl friends PC is having issues.
She has a Radeon HD 4870 video card, same CPU as me, 1 stick of her RAM has a part of a copper pin missing so we took it out (anyone know if it can be fixed for use? it's literally 1/2 a 'pin' gone, and that's it) so she's running on just 4GB RAM instead of the 6.
Not real sure what her motherboard or anythign is, or brands of a lot, it was a "IBUYPOWERPC" make I think.. so blah on them.
Her screens pretty old - but that wouldn't cause the game to freeze, would it?
Anyone know what it could be? We did fix the colouration problem - the GPU only had DVI, so she had to use a VGA to DVI adapter, which caused weight and pulled down on the connection slightly, giving distortion, it's now being propped up and supported gently.
