Hey,
As a new person on this site I would need help with my Sims 2 Game. I have disk version (all disks except 1 stuff pack). My game has been crashing a lot and I heard 4 GB patch would help but... No matter how I try install it game log shows only 2048 memory. Already tried moving the exe file from tsBIN to csBIN and to desktop with no luck - memory still stays 2048. Any help would be appreciated!! I am playing Sims 2 with ASUS laptop with windows 10. Since I have been having problems uppdating my Nvidia Drivers I would like to know can that be the reason for my problems? Below are my latest game log:

Hi! And welcome to the pond ![wave wave](images/smilies/wave.gif)
I'm no expert, but the first thing I can see is: Intel® HD Graphics 4000 <<NOT FOUND IN DATABASE!>>
Do you have a better card than that one?
Have you tried the NEW Graphics Rules Maker? (The old one isn't safe for W10 PCs)
It will help you set your GPU.
Then, clear your caches (found in your Docs folder)
Good luck - let us know if that helps

Hey,
Deleting cache files won't help, I have done that. With graphics (card?) I used the app on my desktop and it allowed me to update to GeForce game Ready Driver version 391.35 (released 03.27.2018). I find it difficult to believe that there would not be any newer versions since 2018 but that is what my system keeps telling. Unfortunately I am not so skilled with computers that I would know how to manually download newer and my system combatible driver from internet.

Your GPU is your Graphics Card (graphics processing unit). You have two. I would try the NVidia GeForce 610M for the Sims 2.
Use the GraphicsRulesMaker to add it to the database.
You may also have to go in from the Graphics card end of things... Open the NVIDIA Control Panel and set your TS2 game to the correct graphics card. (see picture)

Before you post requesting help
Information we need
- The
-config-log.txt from the Logs folder in the My Documents\EA\The Sims2\ Click "full editor" below to attach a text file. - Your operating System.
- What the problem actually is - that will be a picture to show the problem (optional), and accompanying text files that turn up (optional), and a detailed description of what happened, and what you expected to happen.
