So, not long ago I had to refresh my computer due to some issues, which removed all of my games in the process. Now, when I installed the Sims 3 again, it said that the graphics card was not recognized. Now, this I don't understand because I've had this laptop for about 2 years and not once has it shown me that error before. When I opened Sunset Valley as a test to see if anything seemed wrong, everything looked fine (I only opened the neighborhood, I didn't play a household or anything of the sort) and checked the options and the graphics were set like I usually had them. Should I do anything to try and get the game to recognize my graphics card or should I leave it be? And also, would it be safe to reinstall some CC? Thank you in advance!
