Sims2 Windows 10 and NVidia problems

I've been researching the problem - this is what I've come up with so far.

Can you please walk through it, and then see what happens. This is a kind of a more complicated fix than usual, but Windows 10 has really stuffed things up with NVidia, so it's worth a try.

What it is doing is:

1. Turning off Windows 10 Graphic Drivers Update Automatic - so you can install the correct drivers and make the game work again.
2. Setting up the correct driver from NVidia.

Unfortunately, as I don't have Windows 10, and I don't have NVidia I'm not able to test this for myself.

Hi! So, I tried this fix and it seems to have worked (The graphics on my sims 2 game is much better). However I still can't change the resolution. After completing those steps, should I be installing the graphic fixes For Windows 10 (Ultimate Collection)? I know that you said that you don't have Windows 10 or NVidia, but I wanted to check in.

If you're not sure, that's okay. I appreciate all the time and thought you've put into this.

That's terrific penneay! I will refer it on to other folks as well now.

Yes - There are changes for Windows 10/Ultimate Collection/NVidia in the normal graphics fixing. It's just a matter of posting up you config-log.txt and choosing the ones that work for you.

mine is crashing still after this

crashes at rotating ceiling fans just like before

@Dockamorphed

Are they CC ceiling fans or in-game ones Dockamorphed?

i meant the start up dialog for UC where it says "rotating cieling fans" thats where it crashes, almost at the very end. It seems to me that whenever I have my resolution or smooth edges changed at all it will crash. The max I've been able to get it to is 1024x768 I believe.

@celebkiriedhel

my screen is flickering.smooth edges are grayed out.and i cant change the resolution.

Figured out how to configure the Graphics Rules to at least get 1024x768 resolution.

Thank you.

On my laptop, I have the 960m 4gb graphics card, however, my sims 2 ultimate collection does not recognize it, using only the integrated graphics card (HD graphics 530), I do not know how to fix the problem, since I want to use the 960m, not I get it in no way !! I already tried using the graphics rules maker, but it did not work.

Note: I own Windows 10 Pro.

Please help me !!
Thank you !!
