Okay, it says I have a "ATI RAGE128 VR AGP" video card. What does that mean? Is it compatible, because I know other ATI cards are. I wish my computer would stop talking to me in acronyms. |

When I load the Sims 2 onto my laptop the screen display has either "slipped" so I can't see the control panels etc, or they're just not there. All I can see is current sims actions at the top. I'm guessing screen res issues but how do I fix it? Thanks |
